This is the first of two papers concerned with electronic mail. In this paper the essential elements of mail systems — the user agent and the mail delivery agent — are introduced and explained. The various specific mailing systems available with the Unix operating system are briefly compared. A basic minimum set and an extended set of mail user facilities are identified and presented.
