So, rather than a new protocol, you have created a new e-mail server and client system which communicates in its own proprietary binary format? dZ. On Feb 6, 2008, at 18:50, David A. G. wrote: Dear friends, I have developed a complete and very improved e-mail protocol, highly

I wonder why he chose a binary format instead of text as no popular/common protocol is designed that way (i.e. HTTP, FTP, IMAP--all telnet based)! Regards, SZ On 2/7/08, DZ-Jay [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So, rather than a new protocol, you have created a new e-mail server and client system

I suspect that's half the point. Only like equipped users can communicate. Guess there could be a use in the financial or military markets, or other intentionaly closed environments... There again, I'd also guess they have such systems implemented already? Servers, nothing to stop you

MP3 is not a protocol but a file format. You are right that TCP/UDP uses binary headers but we are talking about a high level protocol, which if popularized, will be coded by third party coders according to RFC and this I believe will not be so trivial for the binary case! ICS has codes for

Hello SZ... Astute observation about formats vs. protocols. However, I don't think that David has done away with TCP/IP, the transport protocol used for sending the email with. In a sense, all layer 7 solutions can really be considered a format in a TCP payload. So, the distinction really

Actually, IMNSHO (In My Not So Humble Opinion), binary protocols make much smarter sense for binary machines. Even with the discrepancies of the various flavors of binary formats (big vs little endian, etc), it is WAY MORE EFFICIENT for binary machines to use binary protocols than to interpret

I mean the TCP stack itself. The bugs in first Trumpet and then MS Winsock caused many problems throughout the years since Internet flourished. (AFAIK, since 1993-4). All the coders chose to implement top-level protocols (like you) and it was left to MS for doing the complex TCP job... Regards,
