An SMTP(Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server was designed for delivering and storing user's email across a network. An SMTP server can be distributed as multiple servers for large service, huge users or massive emails. An SMTP server can be constructed by multiple servers with separating file system as email storing space, and each SMTP server can usually share each file system by using the NFS(Network File system). However the NFS is originally designed for sharing each file system across a network, and contains all attributes and features of regular file system. Using this NFS for email storing space of SMTP servers, it makes overhead due to unnecessary work of regular file system. In this paper, we propose a method to do directly operation with socket for reducing work overhead caused by the NFS. For doing directly operation with socket, this paper defines information based storing space structure and a protocol for storing emails. We performed experiments using Mailstone made by Netscape. The experimental results show the performance improvement of the proposed method compared to the existing method.

Recently, the smart devices has been possessed by a large majority of the adult, and offered various personalization services. This paper proposed the lightweight Intelligent Image Security System that notice the existence of any intruder in real time at the place of requiring the security by using smart device. The proposed image security system recognized whether or not intruder exists using the difference frame on the basis of Integral Image and the dynamic background updating algorithms. The intrusion notification is achieved by using the GCM push server that send massages in the application unit of user mobile device, and the SMTP mail server which is use of e-mail standard protocol. In case of the occurrence of intruder, GCM push server send an push-massage by the private mobile device, and SMTP mail server send the intruder's photograph and intrusion time. By the convergence of the various image processing algorithms and the performance of smart device, The proposed image security system can be applied to the various Intelligent Image Security field.

인터넷의 확산과 더불어 전자 우편의 사용이 크게 늘면서 스팸메일의 심각성이 대두되고 있다. 현재 스팸메일을 막기 위한 여러 가지 기법이 제안되고 있으나, 대부분의 방법이 메일 서버내의 정책에 따른 메일 필터링으로, 스팸메일로 인해 네트워크 자원이 소실되는 문제는 여전히 해결되지 않고 있다. 또한 여러 메일 서버가 같은 내용의 메일로 반복적으로 공격을 당하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 게이트웨이 수준에서의 메일감시를 통하여 불필요한 스팸메일로부터 네트워크 자원을 보호하고, 내부 메일 서버 전체를 보호 할 수 있는 시스템에 대해 논의 해보고자 한다. 커널 레벨에서의 패킷 감시로 속도가 빠르고, 또한 가상의 커넥션을 맺어 게이트웨이에서 메일을 완전히 받은 후 검사하므로 더욱더 다양한 정책으로 SMTP를 감시할 수 있으며, 이 시스템은 IP 기반의 다른 프로토콜이나 타 서비스로의 응용 또한 기대할 수 있다.

스팸 전자우편과 전자우편 폭탄을 차단하기 위한 제품들은 많이 나와 있지만, 이러한 차단 제품들의 성능에 대한 신뢰성 있는 검증 자료는 많지 않으며. 검증 결과도 벤더(vendor)들의 주관이 개입될 수 있기 때문에 객관성과 공정성 면에서 부족하다고 하겠다. 이것은 차단 제품들의 성능과 잠재된 취약성을 분석하는 분석 방식의 부족과 기존의 분석 방식들의 한계성에 기인한다고 하겠다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 분석 방식들이 가지고 있는 한계점을 개선하고, 제품의 취약성 분석 과정을 자동화하여 소요되는 시간과 인력 낭비를 줄이고, 반복적으로 분석이 용이하며, 분석 결과와 관련된 취약성 정보를 제공하여 비전문가라도 취약성 분석이 용이한 SMTP 서버 보호를 위한 취약성 분석 자동화 도구를 제안한다.

As the Internet evolves, security becomes more important. Especially, e-mail has become one of the most important services that companies and ordinary users use on the Internet. However, security vulnerabilities such as sniffing attacks, IDs, and password spoofs are causing many problems. This paper introduces an example of implementation of encrypted mailing program with which the secured mail is encrypted by symmetric key methode and the encrypted message can not be read without proper decryption. In order to use the current mailing systems, we keep the rules related to SMTP and POP3, and only the encrypted message is stored in the mail server system and the message can be decrypted only at the terminals of the senders and the receivers with the key which is shared in advanced by independent route between them. This implementation scheme can provide an efficiency that it does not request any change of current mailing system, which can be an additional security protection.

Due to the need for multilingual e-mail address, EAI Working Group of the IETF has created a wide range of standards associated with e-mail address internationalization(EAI) since 2006. One of the authors and colleagues designed and implemented the mail server, SMTPUTF8, that supports EAI RFC protocols. SMTPUTF8 mail server is composed of new SMTP and POP3 servers supporting EAI RFC protocols. However, SMTPUTF8 did not include a new IMAP server supporting EAI RFC protocol. Recently many people are using smart phones to read and send e-mail messages in a mobile environment. IMAP server is more useful than POP3 server in a mobile environment. Therefore, in this paper, the authors have designed and implemented IMAP server and client app that complies with the IMAP standard (RFC) published by EAI WG of IETF to support multilingual e-mail address. This IMAP server is added to the SMTPUTF8 mail server so that users can access e-mail messages via IMAP client app in a mobile environment.

인터넷이 발전함에 따라 기업의 업무, 커뮤니케이션 등이 온라인으로 전환되고 있으며, 정보 전달의 통로로써 전자 메일의 사용이 나날이 늘어남과 동시에 전자 메일을 통한 스팸메일의 폭발적인 증가로 인한 심각성 또한 대두되고 있다. 현재 스팸메일을 막기 위한 여러 가지 방법이 제안되었으나, 대부분 메일 서버내의 정책에 따른 메일 필터링 방식으로써 완벽한 스팸메일 탐지를 제공하지 못하며, 스팸메일로 인한 메일서버 및 네트워크 자원 손실 문제는 여전히 해결되지 않고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스팸메일 탐지율을 높이고 네트워크 내 자원 손실을 예방할 수 있는 SMTP 보안 게이트웨이를 제안하고자 한다. 본 SMTP 보안 게이트웨이는 스팸메일 차단 규칙에 의한 메일 필터링을 기본적으로 제공하고, 룰에 정의되지 않은 메일에 대해서는 사용자 선택에 기반한 메일 전송을 제공한다. 이는 규칙에 정의되지 않은 스팸메일에 대한 탐지 가능성을 높이며, 궁극적으로 메일서버의 자원 및 네트워크 자원의 가용성을 높일 수 있다.

The paper is a design and implementation of the Hybrid Messaging System as integrating electronic mail system and common mail system based on PKI(Public Key Infrastructure), A user writes mail through Web Browser and sends the mail to Web Server. CGHCommon Gateway Interface) program sends the mail that was received through the Web Sever to Post Office Electronic Mail Server using SMTP(SimpleMail Transfer Protocol), The End Process program of the Hybrid Messaging System in a Post Office fetches the mail from the Post Office Electronic Mail Server using POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3), prints it and deliver it to recipients, Also, the Hybrid Messaging System is able to sign the mail with a sign private key that the Certificate Authority publics for users and encrypts the mail with a public key of the Post Office Web Server.

Web-Mail Services are implemented with SMTP and POP3 in these days. These web mail services provide not only the basic sending and receiving functions but also additional functions for user. However, the sent and received data are stored in the web mail server. So general web mail users can't process their mail data if they have not access ID for the web mail server. In this paper, we design and implement WMIS (Web Mail Integration System) using XML. In the proposed system, mail data and user's environments in the old web mail system are transformed into XML documents and inserted into database. In order to store XML data into database, we use dynamic document processing method and analyze XML file by record unit. When the users change their mail accounts, they easily can establish the web environments and their mail data. Because the transformed XML document is converted into WML easily, the WMIS can reduce development cost, labors and time.

The email system is one of the most popular internet applications used to transmit and exchange personal information. However, the pattern of existing email system is fixed, and the system cannot be expanded or re-used. This thesis has proposed the system which can provide the users with better e-mail data which is flexible, re-usable, and expandable XML data on the web-mail. The process of change is as follows: First, make the XML data to have a tree structure using DOM API and then bring the received messages of the users with the CDONTS. Last, transform the received messages into the element and element value. When the e-mail data is transformed t the XML data, 'the data' and 'the presentation' can be distinguished, which enables the users to see messages according to each individual's unique need. With this system, the user can not only convert data to XML, but also can combine the data segments to a form of letter box in order to manage data conveniently and search the data.
