As the topic itself suggests, this diploma thesis deals with access to
electronic mail via WWW interface.
The first part of this thesis is more often theoretical than practical.
It concerns with creating and sending an electronic message
using the SMTP protocol and transferring the message through particular MTAs.
Obviously, it also includes a short description of POP3 and IMAP4 protocols
which purpose is to receive electronic messages from a remote mail server.
|
| The second part is aimed at a concrete realization of a simple web mail application using the object-oriented Java programming language and its JavaServlet technology. The JavaMail API supports SMTP, POP3 and IMAP4 protocols and thus is used for communication between the servlet and mail servers. |
