Abstract

The increasing importance of messaging as a potential source of revenue for mobile networks has led operators to build or procure mobile messaging solutions. Some operators have built mobile messaging solutions using IETF standards (IMAP, SMTP, MIME). Another solution has been developed by consensus in the 3GPP and OMA groups, based on MIME, HTTP methods and WAP PUSH, which has been deployed by many operators. This document presents a taxonomy of messaging architecture components and models, providing a comparison of their feature sets. It also identifies the commonalities of these mobile messaging solutions and abstracts from these a set of mobile messaging requirements. The information is provided to inform and encourage future discussion of and improvements to Internet messaging in order to increase their applicability to mobile messaging systems.
