The main purpose of SMTP is to deliver messages to user's mailboxes. A very similar service provided by some hosts is to deliver messages to user's terminals (provided the user is active on the host). The delivery to the user's mailbox is called "mailing", the delivery to the user's terminal is called "sending". Because in many hosts the implementation of sending is nearly identical to the implementation of mailing these two functions are combined in SMTP. However the sending commands are not included in the required minimum implementation (Section 4.5.1). Users should have the ability to control the writing of messages on their terminals. Most hosts permit the users to accept or refuse such messages. The following three command are defined to support the sending options. These are used in the mail transaction instead of the MAIL command and inform the receiver-SMTP of the special semantics of this transaction: SEND <SP> FROM:<reverse-path> <CRLF> The SEND command requires that the mail data be delivered to the user's terminal. If the user is not active (or not accepting terminal messages) on the host a 450 reply may returned to a RCPT command. The mail transaction is successful if the message is delivered the terminal. SOML <SP> FROM:<reverse-path> <CRLF> The Send Or MaiL command requires that the mail data be delivered to the user's terminal if the user is active (and accepting terminal messages) on the host. If the user is not active (or not accepting terminal messages) then the mail data is entered into the user's mailbox. The mail transaction is successful if the message is delivered either to the terminal or the mailbox. SAML <SP> FROM:<reverse-path> <CRLF> The Send And MaiL command requires that the mail data be delivered to the user's terminal if the user is active (and accepting terminal messages) on the host. In any case the mail data is entered into the user's mailbox. The mail transaction is successful if the message is delivered the mailbox. The same reply codes that are used for the MAIL commands are used for these commands.

What is the difference between SMTP and HTTP?
There are three main differences between HTTP and SMTP:1) HTTP is mainly a pull protocol--someone loads information on a web server and users use HTTP to pull the information from the server. On the other hand, SMTP is primarily a push protocol--the sending mail server pushes the file to receiving mail server.2) SMTP requires each message, including the body of each message, to be in seven-bit ASCII format. If the message contains binary data, then the message has to be encoded into seven-bit ASCII format. HTTP does not have this restriction.3) HTTP encapsulate each object of message in its own response message while SMTP places all of the message's objects into one message.--Nitin, CAIR, Bangalore
