Scope
This part of ISO/IEC 10021 is one of a set of standards for message handling. The entire set provides a comprehensive blueprint for a message handling system (MHS) realized by any number of cooperating open systems.
NOTE - The Message-Oriented Text Interchange System (MOnS) was formerly the title of 10021:1990 parts and has been superseded by amendment to become Message Handling Systems (MHS). MHS is also published by the ITU-T as part of the X.400 series of Recommendations.
The purpose of an MHS is to enable users to exchange messages on a store-and-forward basis. A message submitted on behalf of one user, the originator, is conveyed by the message transfer system (MTS) and subsequently delivered to the agents of one or more additional users, the recipients. Access units (AU) link the MrS to communication systems of other kinds (e.g., postal systems). A user is assisted in the preparation, storage, and display of messages by a user agent (VA). Optionally, it is assisted in the storage of messages by a message store (MS). The MrS comprises a number of message transfer agents (MT A) which collectively perform the store-and-forward message transfer function.
This part of ISO/IEC 10021 defines the message handling application called EDI messaging (EDIMG), a form of message handling tailored for exchange of electronic data interchange (ED!) information, a new message content type and associated procedures known as Pedi' It is designed to meet the requirements of users of ISO 9735 (EDIFACT), and other commonly used ED! systems.
This part of ISO/IEC 10021 is one of a series on message handling. ISO/IEC 10021-2 I CCITT Recommendation X.402 constinnes the introduction to the series and identifies the other documents in it. The architectural basis and foundation for message handling are defined in still other parts. ISO/IEC 10021-2 I CCnT Recommendation X.402 identifies those documents as well.
