Foreword
IS0 (the international Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International
Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide
standardization. National bodies that are members of IS0 or EC participate in the
development of International Standards through technical committees established by the
respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. IS0 and IEC
technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with IS0 and IEC, also
take part in the work.
In the field of information technology, IS0 and IEC have established a joint technical
committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical
committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75% of the national bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISû/iEJC 10021-5 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee
ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 18, Document processing
and related communication.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISODC 10021-5:1990),
which has been technically revised.
This second edition consolidates Technical Corrigenda 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8.
ISOlnix: 10021 consists of the following parts. under the general title Information
technology - Text Communication - Message-Oriented Text Interchange Systems
(MOTIS):
- Part 1 : System and Service Overview
- Part 2: Overall Architexture
- Part 3: Abstract Service Dejhition Conventions
- Part 4: Message Transfer System: Abstract Service Definition and Procedures

Introduction
This part of ISO/EC 10021 is one of a number of parts of ISO/IEC 10021 defining Message Handling in a distributed open
systems environment,
Message Handling provides for the exchange of messages between users on a store-and-forward basis. A message submitted
by one user (the originator) is transferred through the message-transfer-system (MTS) and delivered to one or more other
users (the recipients).
This part of ISODC 10021 defines the Message Store abstract-service (MS abstract-service) which suppom message-
retrieval from a Message Store (MS) and message-submission through the MS in a Message Handling System (MHS). The
MS abstract-service also provides message-administration services, as defined by the Message Transfer System (MTS)
