Status of this document
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This document is a Fidonet Standards Proposal (FSP).
|
||||
|
||||
This document specifies an optional Fidonet standard protocol for
|
||||
the Fidonet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
|
||||
improvements.
|
||||
|
||||
This document is released to the public domain, and may be used,
|
||||
copied or modified for any purpose whatever.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Abstract
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
Private messages within FidoNet only have one recipient address.
|
||||
Multiple copies of the same message have to be sent to a FidoNet-
|
||||
to-Internet gateway in order to address multiple recipients. This is
|
||||
a proposal to indicate the addresses of multiple recipients in the
|
||||
body of the message sent to the gateway.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. Scope
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
This standard is specified for FTN netmail messages sent to a
|
||||
FidoNet-to-Internet gateway. Users are able to add this information
|
||||
manually, although message editors could support this and make it
|
||||
transparent to the user.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Background
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
Three types of recipient addresses can be specified on the Internet
|
||||
and are reflected in this suggestion: To, Cc and Bcc. "To" are the
|
||||
primary recipient(s) of the message. "Cc" is short for Carbon Copy
|
||||
and lists the recipients that are intended to receive the message as
|
||||
"informational". The last option "Bcc" is short for Blind Carbon
|
||||
Copy. Recipients lists as Bcc recipients will not show up in the
|
||||
headers of the Internet message, but get a copy anyway.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. Format
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
Immediately following the kludge lines, one or more of the following
|
||||
lines can be inserted in the message. If a To: line is present, then
|
||||
these lines follow the To: line.
|
||||
|
||||
GW-To: <e-mail address>[,<e-mail address>[...]]
|
||||
GW-Cc: <e-mail address>[,<e-mail address>[...]]
|
||||
GW-Bcc: <e-mail address>[,<e-mail address>[...]]
|
||||
|
||||
Where <e-mail address> is in the form of
|
||||
|
||||
ramon@wsd.wline.se
|
||||
or
|
||||
wsd.wline.se!ramon
|
||||
|
||||
Multiple addresses can be specified on the same line, separated by a
|
||||
comma with optionally spaces around the comma. There is no limit
|
||||
regarding the length of the line. The line must be terminated by a
|
||||
single carriage return.
|
||||
|
||||
The GW-To: line replaces the To: lines.
|
||||
|
||||
The reason for GW-Cc is that "Cc:" by itself is expanded by some
|
||||
editors and used to generate multiple copies of a message.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
4. Implementation notes for gateways
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Gateways supporting this format add the e-mail addresses mentioned
|
||||
in any of these three headers to the envelope file and create on
|
||||
outbound (probably UUCP or SMTP) body text message. Rules for the
|
||||
maximum length of envelope files (if any) apply.
|
||||
|
||||
The headers section of the RFC822 message will list the e-mail
|
||||
addresses under the To: and Cc: headers. A Bcc: header must not be
|
||||
added!

||||
