A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

	Title		: The Ted.Net protocol for messaging based business 
                          interchanges

The Ted.Net protocol improves messaging systems while
being fully compatible with all of them.
Ted.Net improvements bring to messaging systems' end users :

 - large file transfers capabilities,
 - pretty good level of privacy,
 - integrity control of the transfered data,
 - time stamped proofs of the acceptance of data by the recipient.

With the secure and stable services of Ted.Net, users can rely on
private or public messaging systems, SMTP, X400, or editors'
ones, to put on Electronic Data Interchanges (EDI).

NOTE:	The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
