17. How Email Works
17.1. 1) the sender uses a MUA to compose an email.
17.2. 2) the mail is sent to MTA for sending the email to the receipient' MTA.
17.3. 3) the recipient's MTA receives the email and passed it to a MDA (using POP or IMAP protocol).
17.4. 4) the recipient uses an MUA to check and retrieve messages from the MDA.
