Email Program System Abstract
Email Program System Abstract
ABSTRACT
Email program system is to simulate the existing email system. Its purpose is to send and
receive electronic mails (e-mails). This project is developed using JAVA and few APIs of
Java. In addition to JAVA and its API, networking and sockets like POP3 and SMTP are
used.
Existing System
The existing system has two mail server’s one at sender side and another at recipient side.
The sender’s device is connected to server at sender side, which collects the mail from
sender, processes and forwards it to the server at recipient side. The recipient server
processes the received mails, sorts them and sends to receiver device. Mailing services
like Yahoo, Gmail and hotmail uses HTTP 80 port for communication which is not
suitable for sharing confidential messages as messages can be hacked easily.
Proposed System
The proposed system uses JAVA coding to send the mails. It securely transmits the mail
between sender and receiver. The cost of system design is too less when compared to
conventional email services. Over all, Email program system is cost effective and doesn’t
compromise on security.
Modules
Server Module
Client Module
Email Inbox Module
Module Description
1. Server Module: It accepts the connection from different clients using server
socket class. All the details regarding client connection like establishment,
sending, receiving and termination of connection are stored in the server. Server is
designed in such a way that it is reliable, available and accessible by all the
authenticated clients in the network.
2. Client Module: When the server is active client can connect to the server and
each client can send or receive mails or share attachments with other clients.
Client’s user name and passwords are stored in data files. Communication
between clients is facilitated via server.
3. Email Inbox Module: This module handles all the functions related to mailing
like forwarding, view attachment, save attachment.
