+in particular, +the mail system can refer to users +using a host-username pair. +Host names and numbers have to be administered by a central authority, +but usernames can be assigned locally to each host. +.pp +In an internet, +multiple networks with different characteristics +and managements +must communicate. +In particular, +the syntax and semantics of resource identification change. +Certain special cases can be handled trivially +by +.i "ad hoc" +techniques, +such as +providing network names that appear local to hosts +on other networks, +as with the Ethernet at Xerox PARC. +However, the general case is extremely complex. +For example, +some networks require that the route the message takes +be explicitly specified by the sender, +simplifying the database update problem +since only adjacent hosts must be entered +into the system tables, +while others use logical addressing, +where the sender specifies the location of the recipient +but not how to get there. +Some networks use a left-associative syntax +and others use a right-associative syntax, +causing ambiguity in mixed addresses. +.pp +Internet standards seek to eliminate these problems. +Initially, these proposed expanding the address pairs +to address triples, +consisting of +{network, host, username} +triples. +Network numbers must be universally agreed upon, +and hosts can be assigned locally +on each network. +The user-level presentation was changed +to address domains, +comprised of a local resource identification +and a hierarchical domain specification +with a common static root. +The domain technique +separates the issue of physical versus logical addressing. +For example, +an address of the form +.q "eric@a.cc.berkeley.arpa" +describes the logical +organization of the address space +(user +.q eric +on host +.q a +in the Computer Center +at Berkeley) +but not the physical networks used +(for example, this could go over different networks +depending on whether +.q a +were on an ethernet +or a store-and-forward network). +.pp +.i Sendmail +is intended to help bridge the gap +between the totally +.i "ad hoc" +world +of networks that know nothing of each other +and the clean, tightly-coupled world +of unique network numbers. +It can accept old arbitrary address syntaxes, +resolving ambiguities using heuristics +specified by the system administrator, +as well as domain-based addressing. +It helps guide the conversion of message formats +between disparate networks. +In short, +.i sendmail +is designed to assist a graceful transition +to consistent internetwork addressing schemes. +.sp +.pp +Section 1 defines some of the terms +frequently left fuzzy +when working in mail systems. +Section 2 discusses the design goals for +.i sendmail . +In section 3, +the new address formats +and basic features of +.i sendmail +are described. +Section 4 discusses some of the special problems +of the UUCP network. +The differences between +.i sendmail +and +.i delivermail +are presented in section 5. +.sp +.(l F +.b DISCLAIMER: +A number of examples +in this paper +use names of actual people +and organizations. +This is not intended +to imply a commitment +or even an intellectual agreement +on the part of these people or organizations. +In particular, +Bell Telephone Laboratories (BTL), +Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), +Lawrence Berkeley Laboratories (LBL), +Britton-Lee Incorporated (BLI), +and the University of California at Berkeley +are not committed to any of these proposals at this time. +Much of this paper +represents no more than +the personal opinions of the author. +.)l +.sh 1 "DEFINITIONS" +.pp +There are four basic concepts +that must be clearly distinguished +when dealing with mail systems: +the user (or the user's agent), +the user's identification, +the user's address, +and the route. +These are distinguished primarily by their position independence. +.sh 2 "User and Identification" +.pp +The user is the being +(a person or program) +that is creating or receiving a message. +An +.i agent +is an entity operating on behalf of the user \*- +such as a secretary who handles my mail. +or a program that automatically returns a +message such as +.q "I am at the UNICOM conference." +.pp +The identification is the tag +that goes along with the particular user. +This tag is completely independent of location. +For example, +my identification is the string +.q "Eric Allman," +and this identification does not change +whether I am located at U.C. Berkeley, +at Britton-Lee, +or at a scientific institute in Austria. +.pp +Since the identification is frequently ambiguous +(e.g., there are two +.q "Robert Henry" s +at Berkeley) +it is common to add other disambiguating information +that is not strictly part of the identification +(e.g., +Robert +.q "Code Generator" +Henry +versus +Robert +.q "System Administrator" +Henry). +.sh 2 "Address" +.pp +The address specifies a location. +As I move around, +my address changes. +For example, +my address might change from +.q eric@Berkeley.ARPA +to +.q eric@bli.UUCP +or +.q allman@IIASA.Austria +depending on my current affiliation. +.pp +However, +an address is independent of the location of anyone else. +That is, +my address remains the same to everyone who might be sending me mail. +For example, +a person at MIT and a person at USC +could both send to +.q eric@Berkeley.ARPA +and have it arrive to the same mailbox. +.pp +Ideally a +.q "white pages" +service would be provided to map user identifications +into addresses +(for example, see +[Solomon81]). +Currently this is handled by passing around +scraps of paper +or by calling people on the telephone +to find out their address. +.sh 2 "Route" +.pp +While an address specifies +.i where +to find a mailbox, +a route specifies +.i how +to find the mailbox. +Specifically, +it specifies a path +from sender to receiver. +As such, the route is potentially different +for every pair of people in the electronic universe. +.pp +Normally the route is hidden from the user +by the software. +However, +some networks put the burden of determining the route +onto the sender. +Although this simplifies the software, +it also greatly impairs the usability +for most users. +The UUCP network is an example of such a network. +.sh 1 "DESIGN GOALS" +.pp +Design goals for +.i sendmail \** +.(f +\**This section makes no distinction between +.i delivermail +and +.i sendmail. +.)f +include: +.np +Compatibility with the existing mail programs, +including Bell version 6 mail, +Bell version 7 mail, +Berkeley +.i Mail +[Shoens79], +BerkNet mail +[Schmidt79], +and hopefully UUCP mail +[Nowitz78]. +ARPANET mail +[Crocker82] +was also required. +.np +Reliability, in the sense of guaranteeing +that every message is correctly delivered +or at least brought to the attention of a human +for correct disposal; +no message should ever be completely lost. +This goal was considered essential +because of the emphasis on mail in our environment. +It has turned out to be one of the hardest goals to satisfy, +especially in the face of the many anomalous message formats +produced by various ARPANET sites. +For example, +certain sites generate improperly formated addresses, +occasionally +causing error-message loops. +Some hosts use blanks in names, +causing problems with +mail programs that assume that an address +is one word. +The semantics of some fields +are interpreted slightly differently +by different sites. +In summary, +the obscure features of the ARPANET mail protocol +really +.i are +used and +are difficult to support, +but must be supported. +.np +Existing software to do actual delivery +should be used whenever possible. +This goal derives as much from political and practical considerations +as technical. +.np +Easy expansion to +fairly complex environments, +including multiple +connections to a single network type +(such as with multiple UUCP or Ethernets). +This goal requires consideration of the contents of an address +as well as its syntax +in order to determine which gateway to use. +.np +Configuration information should not be compiled into the code. +A single compiled program should be able to run as is at any site +(barring such basic changes as the CPU type or the operating system). +We have found this seemingly unimportant goal +to be critical in real life. +Besides the simple problems that occur when any program gets recompiled +in a different environment, +many sites like to +.q fiddle +with anything that they will be recompiling anyway. +.np +.i Sendmail +must be able to let various groups maintain their own mailing lists, +and let individuals specify their own forwarding, +without modifying the system alias file. +.np +Each user should be able to specify which mailer to execute +to process mail being delivered for him. +This feature allows users who are using specialized mailers +that use a different format to build their environment +without changing the system, +and facilitates specialized functions +(such as returning an +.q "I am on vacation" +message). +.np +Network traffic should be minimized +by batching addresses to a single host where possible, +without assistance from the user. +.pp +These goals motivated the architecture illustrated in figure 1. +.(z +.hl +.ie t \ +. sp 18 +.el \{\ +.(c ++---------+ +---------+ +---------+ +| sender1 | | sender2 | | sender3 | ++---------+ +---------+ +---------+ + | | | + +----------+ + +----------+ + | | | + v v v + +-------------+ + | sendmail | + +-------------+ + | | | + +----------+ + +----------+ + | | | + v v v ++---------+ +---------+ +---------+ +| mailer1 | | mailer2 | | mailer3 | ++---------+ +---------+ +---------+ +.)c +.\} + +.ce +Figure 1 \*- Sendmail System Structure. +.hl +.)z +The user interacts with a mail generating and sending program. +When the mail is created, +the generator calls +.i sendmail , +which routes the message to the correct mailer(s). +Since some of the senders may be network servers +and some of the mailers may be network clients, +.i sendmail +may be used as an internet mail gateway. +.sh 1 "USAGE" +.sh 2 "Address Formats" +.pp +Arguments may be flags or addresses. +Flags set various processing options. +Following flag arguments, +address arguments may be given. +Addresses follow the syntax in RFC822 +[Crocker82] +for ARPANET +address formats. +In brief, the format is: +.np +Anything in parentheses is thrown away +(as a comment). +.np +Anything in angle brackets (\c +.q "<\|>" ) +is preferred +over anything else. +This rule implements the ARPANET standard that addresses of the form +.(b +user name +.)b +will send to the electronic +.q machine-address +rather than the human +.q "user name." +.np +Double quotes +(\ "\ ) +quote phrases; +backslashes quote characters. +Backslashes are more powerful +in that they will cause otherwise equivalent phrases +to compare differently \*- for example, +.i user +and +.i +"user" +.r +are equivalent, +but +.i \euser +is different from either of them. +This might be used +to avoid normal aliasing +or duplicate suppression algorithms. +.pp +Parentheses, angle brackets, and double quotes +must be properly balanced and nested. +The rewriting rules control remaining parsing\**. +.(f +\**Disclaimer: Some special processing is done +after rewriting local names; see below. +.)f +.pp +Although old style addresses are still accepted +in most cases, +the preferred address format +is based on ARPANET-style domain-based addresses +[Su82a]. +These addresses are based on a hierarchical, logical decomposition +of the address space. +The addresses are hierarchical in a sense +similar to the U.S. postal addresses: +the messages may first be routed to the correct state, +with no initial consideration of the city +or other addressing details. +The addresses are logical +in that each step in the hierarchy +corresponds to a set of +.q "naming authorities" +rather than a physical network. +.pp +For example, +the address: +.(l +eric@HostA.BigSite.ARPA +.)l +would first look up the domain +BigSite +in the namespace administrated by +ARPA. +A query could then be sent to +BigSite +for interpretation of +HostA. +Eventually the mail would arrive at +HostA, +which would then do final delivery +to user +.q eric. +.sh 2 "Mail to Files and Programs" +.pp +Files and programs are legitimate message recipients. +Files provide archival storage of messages, +useful for project administration and history. +Programs are useful as recipients in a variety of situations, +for example, +to maintain a public repository of systems messages +(such as the Berkeley +.i msgs +program). +.pp +Any address passing through the initial parsing algorithm +as a local address +(i.e, not appearing to be a valid address for another mailer) +is scanned for two special cases. +If prefixed by a vertical bar (\c +.q \^|\^ ) +the rest of the address is processed as a shell command. +If the user name begins with a slash mark (\c +.q /\^ ) +the name is used as a file name, +instead of a login name. +.sh 2 "Aliasing, Forwarding, Inclusion" +.pp +.i Sendmail +reroutes mail three ways. +Aliasing applies system wide. +Forwarding allows each user to reroute incoming mail +destined for that account. +Inclusion directs +.i sendmail +to read a file for a list of addresses, +and is normally used +in conjunction with aliasing. +.sh 3 "Aliasing" +.pp +Aliasing maps local addresses to address lists using a system-wide file. +This file is hashed to speed access. +Only addresses that parse as local +are allowed as aliases; +this guarantees a unique key +(since there are no nicknames for the local host). +.sh 3 "Forwarding" +.pp +After aliasing, +if an recipient address specifies a local user +.i sendmail +searches for a +.q .forward +file in the recipient's home directory. +If it exists, +the message is +.i not +sent to that user, +but rather to the list of addresses in that file. +Often +this list will contain only one address, +and the feature will be used for network mail forwarding. +.pp +Forwarding also permits a user to specify a private incoming mailer. +For example, +forwarding to: +.(b +"\^|\|/usr/local/newmail myname" +.)b +will use a different incoming mailer. +.sh 3 "Inclusion" +.pp +Inclusion is specified in RFC 733 [Crocker77] syntax: +.(b +:Include: pathname +.)b +An address of this form reads the file specified by +.i pathname +and sends to all users listed in that file. +.pp +The intent is +.i not +to support direct use of this feature, +but rather to use this as a subset of aliasing. +For example, +an alias of the form: +.(b +project: :include:/usr/project/userlist +.)b +is a method of letting a project maintain a mailing list +without interaction with the system administration, +even if the alias file is protected. +.pp +It is not necessary to rebuild the index on the alias database +when a :include: list is changed. +.sh 2 "Message Collection" +.pp +Once all recipient addresses are parsed and verified, +the message is collected. +The message comes in two parts: +a message header and a message body, +separated by a blank line. +The body is an uninterpreted +sequence of text lines. +.pp +The header is formated as a series of lines +of the form +.(b + field-name: field-value +.)b +Field-value can be split across lines by starting the following +lines with a space or a tab. +Some header fields have special internal meaning, +and have appropriate special processing. +Other headers are simply passed through. +Some header fields may be added automatically, +such as time stamps. +.sh 1 "THE UUCP PROBLEM" +.pp +Of particular interest +is the UUCP network. +The explicit routing +used in the UUCP environment +causes a number of serious problems. +First, +giving out an address +is impossible +without knowing the address of your potential correspondent. +This is typically handled +by specifying the address +relative to some +.q "well-known" +host +(e.g., +ucbvax or decvax). +Second, +it is often difficult to compute +the set of addresses +to reply to +without some knowledge +of the topology of the network. +Although it may be easy for a human being +to do this +under many circumstances, +a program does not have equally sophisticated heuristics +built in. +Third, +certain addresses will become painfully and unnecessarily long, +as when a message is routed through many hosts in the USENET. +And finally, +certain +.q "mixed domain" +addresses +are impossible to parse unambiguously \*- +e.g., +.(l +decvax!ucbvax!lbl-h!user@LBL-CSAM +.)l +might have many possible resolutions, +depending on whether the message was first routed +to decvax +or to LBL-CSAM. +.pp +To solve this problem, +the UUCP syntax +would have to be changed to use addresses +rather than routes. +For example, +the address +.q decvax!ucbvax!eric +might be expressed as +.q eric@ucbvax.UUCP +(with the hop through decvax implied). +This address would itself be a domain-based address; +for example, +an address might be of the form: +.(l +mark@d.cbosg.btl.UUCP +.)l +Hosts outside of Bell Telephone Laboratories +would then only need to know +how to get to a designated BTL relay, +and the BTL topology +would only be maintained inside Bell. +.pp +There are three major problems +associated with turning UUCP addresses +into something reasonable: +defining the namespace, +creating and propagating the necessary software, +and building and maintaining the database. +.sh 2 "Defining the Namespace" +.pp +Putting all UUCP hosts into a flat namespace +(e.g., +.q \&...@host.UUCP ) +is not practical for a number of reasons. +First, +with over 1600 sites already, +and (with the increasing availability of inexpensive microcomputers +and autodialers) +several thousand more coming within a few years, +the database update problem +is simply intractable +if the namespace is flat. +Second, +there are almost certainly name conflicts today. +Third, +as the number of sites grow +the names become ever less mnemonic. +.pp +It seems inevitable +that there be some sort of naming authority +for the set of top level names +in the UUCP domain, +as unpleasant a possibility +as that may seem. +It will simply not be possible +to have one host resolving all names. +It may however be possible +to handle this +in a fashion similar to that of assigning names of newsgroups +in USENET. +However, +it will be essential to encourage everyone +to become subdomains of an existing domain +whenever possible \*- +even though this will certainly bruise some egos. +For example, +if a new host named +.q blid +were to be added to the UUCP network, +it would probably actually be addressed as +.q d.bli.UUCP +(i.e., +as host +.q d +in the pseudo-domain +.q bli +rather than as host +.q blid +in the UUCP domain). +.sh 2 "Creating and Propagating the Software" +.pp +The software required to implement a consistent namespace +is relatively trivial. +Two modules are needed, +one to handle incoming mail +and one to handle outgoing mail. +.pp +The incoming module +must be prepared to handle either old or new style addresses. +New-style addresses +can be passed through unchanged. +Old style addresses +must be turned into new style addresses +where possible. +.pp +The outgoing module +is slightly trickier. +It must do a database lookup on the recipient addresses +(passed on the command line) +to determine what hosts to send the message to. +If those hosts do not accept new-style addresses, +it must transform all addresses in the header of the message +into old style using the database lookup. +.pp +Both of these modules +are straightforward +except for the issue of modifying the header. +It seems prudent to choose one format +for the message headers. +For a number of reasons, +Berkeley has elected to use the ARPANET protocols +for message formats. +However, +this protocol is somewhat difficult to parse. +.pp +Propagation is somewhat more difficult. +There are a large number of hosts +connected to UUCP +that will want to run completely standard systems +(for very good reasons). +The strategy is not to convert the entire network \*- +only enough of it it alleviate the problem. +.sh 2 "Building and Maintaining the Database" +.pp +This is by far the most difficult problem. +A prototype for this database +already exists, +but it is maintained by hand +and does not pretend to be complete. +.pp +This problem will be reduced considerably +if people choose to group their hosts +into subdomains. +This would require a global update +only when a new top level domain +joined the network. +A message to a host in a subdomain +could simply be routed to a known domain gateway +for further processing. +For example, +the address +.q eric@a.bli.UUCP +might be routed to the +.q bli +gateway +for redistribution; +new hosts could be added +within BLI +without notifying the rest of the world. +Of course, +other hosts +.i could +be notified as an efficiency measure. +.pp +There may be more than one domain gateway. +A domain such as BTL, +for instance, +might have a dozen gateways to the outside world; +a non-BTL site +could choose the closest gateway. +The only restriction +would be that all gateways +maintain a consistent view of the domain +they represent. +.sh 2 "Logical Structure" +.pp +Logically, +domains are organized into a tree. +There need not be a host actually associated +with each level in the tree \*- +for example, +there will be no host associated with the name +.q UUCP. +Similarly, +an organization might group names together for administrative reasons; +for example, +the name +.(l +CAD.research.BigCorp.UUCP +.)l +might not actually have a host representing +.q research. +.pp +However, +it may frequently be convenient to have a host +or hosts +that +.q represent +a domain. +For example, +if a single host exists that +represents +Berkeley, +then mail from outside Berkeley +can forward mail to that host +for further resolution +without knowing Berkeley's +(rather volatile) +topology. +This is not unlike the operation +of the telephone network. +.pp +This may also be useful +inside certain large domains. +For example, +at Berkeley it may be presumed +that most hosts know about other hosts +inside the Berkeley domain. +But if they process an address +that is unknown, +they can pass it +.q upstairs +for further examination. +Thus as new hosts are added +only one host +(the domain master) +.i must +be updated immediately; +other hosts can be updated as convenient. +.pp +Ideally this name resolution process +would be performed by a name server +(e.g., [Su82b]) +to avoid unnecessary copying +of the message. +However, +in a batch network +such as UUCP +this could result in unnecessary delays. +.sh 1 "COMPARISON WITH DELIVERMAIL" +.pp +.i Sendmail +is an outgrowth of +.i delivermail . +The primary differences are: +.np +Configuration information is not compiled in. +This change simplifies many of the problems +of moving to other machines. +It also allows easy debugging of new mailers. +.np +Address parsing is more flexible. +For example, +.i delivermail +only supported one gateway to any network, +whereas +.i sendmail +can be sensitive to host names +and reroute to different gateways. +.np +Forwarding and +:include: +features eliminate the requirement that the system alias file +be writable by any user +(or that an update program be written, +or that the system administration make all changes). +.np +.i Sendmail +supports message batching across networks +when a message is being sent to multiple recipients. +.np +A mail queue is provided in +.i sendmail. +Mail that cannot be delivered immediately +but can potentially be delivered later +is stored in this queue for a later retry. +The queue also provides a buffer against system crashes; +after the message has been collected +it may be reliably redelivered +even if the system crashes during the initial delivery. +.np +.i Sendmail +uses the networking support provided by 4.2BSD +to provide a direct interface networks such as the ARPANET +and/or Ethernet +using SMTP (the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) +over a TCP/IP connection. +.+c +.ce +REFERENCES +.nr ii 1.5i +.ip [Crocker77] +Crocker, D.
