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

       Title     : Simple Network Paging Protocol - Version 3 - 
                   Two-Way Enhanced

This document suggests a simple way for delivering wireless messages, both 
one and two-way, to appropriate receiving devices.  In its simplest form, 
SNPP provides a simple way to implement a "shim" between the Internet and a
TAP/IXO paging terminal. In its level 3 form, it provides an easy-to-use 
(and build) method for communicating and receiving end-to-end 
acknowledgments and replies from two-way messaging devices (such as ReFLEX 
units).       
                                                             
Gateways supporting this protocol, as well as SMTP, have been in use for 
well over a year at several commercial paging companies, and private 
businesses.  Client software supporting this protocol has become 
widespread, and is being integrated into many of the new paging and 
messaging products being built.  In addition to commercial software, email 
filters and SNPP client software for Unix and Windows (WikiPage) are 
available at no cost.  Please contact the author for more information.     

Earlier versions of this specification were reviewed by IESG members and 
the "822 Extensions" Working Group.  They preferred an alternate strategy, 
as discussed under "Relationship to Other IETF Work", below.

Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-rfced-info-snpp-v3-00.txt".
							
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.
							
For questions, please mail to Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.
							

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