Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Message Posting Protocol (MPP) is a network protocol that is used for posting messages from a computer to a mail service host. MPP runs on TCP and UDP port 218, but it was mostly designed to work on TCP. It is based on 2 basic structures: command and reply. In computing and telecommunications, a protocol or communications protocol is a formal description of message formats and the rules for exchanging those messages. Protocols may include signaling, authentication and error detection and correction capabilities. In its simplest form, a protocol can be defined as the rules governing the syntax, semantics, and synchronization of communication. Protocols may be implemented by hardware, software, or a combination of the two. At the lowest level, a protocol defines the behaviour of a hardware connection.
