However, it doesn't describe how 23 multiple Mail User Agents (MUAs) should handle the generation of MDNs 24 in an Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP4) environment. 26 This document describes how to handle MDNs in such an environment and 27 provides guidelines for implementers of IMAP4 that want to add MDN 28 support to their products. 30 This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. 32 This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for 33 the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions 34 for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the 35 "Internet Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the 36 standardization state and status of this protocol.
