And finally, part 2 is published too! Let me know if I made any boo-boos.
ABC: An Introduction to E-Mail Technology E-mail works so quickly and well that its complexity is hidden from end users. That's a good thing. But IT managers should know the very basics of how an e-mail message gets from sender to recipient, and what can delay or prevent its arrival. Read this introduction to the technology basics and e-mail protocols. http://www.cio.com/article/169700 Esther Schindler senior online editor, CIO.com P.S. I suspect you'd like your management and users to understand this stuff, so that you don't have to explain it over and over. So if you'd be so kind as to nudge it up on digg.com ( http://digg.com/software/What_Makes_E_mail_Tick ) or slashdot ( http://slashdot.org/firehose.pl?op=view&id=454656 )? I wouldn't mind at all.
