Mail Server

A mail server responds to requests for delivery of electronic messages. The server stores incoming messages, and sends outbound messages to the recipient (another mail server). A mail server also responds to requests for manipulation and retrieval of messages stored.

SMTP is a protocol used to send an email message between a client and server, as well as between a server and another server. POP is a protocol used to retrieve stored messages and transmit them to the client. IMAP is a protocol used to examine and manipulate the stored messages from a client.

The outbound messages are often placed in queues, bundled and sent at regular intervals.

A webmail application is placed on a web server, which acts as a client to a mail server.
