    Abstract

      This specification provides a way to request timely completion for
      Internet mail delivery, for services such as facsimile and voice
      messaging. Traditional Internet mail uses a _postal_ mail model,
      with normal delivery having an indeterminate gap between delivery
      into a mailbox and processing by the recipient. Timely completion
      adds a timelines service feature and extends delivery processing
      all the way to the recipient. This specification provides a
      deterministic service quality response, while preserving most of
      the traditional roles and responsibilities of the agents involved
      in email transfers.

      It is essentially a profile of the Delivery Service Notification
      (DSN) and DELIVERBY extensions for ESMTP, along with a new TIMELY
      option to DELIVERBY with a new deterministic service quality
      response.
