2.1. Application architecture
The review of the application functionality must be preceded by a description of
its internal architecture.
Kaspersky Mail Gateway is a full-featured Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) able to
receive and route email traffic scanning email messages for viruses and filtering
spam.
Kaspersky Mail Gateway uses SMTP protocol commands (RFC 2821), Internet
message format (RFC 2822), MIME format (RFC 2045-2049, 2231, 2646), and
satisfies the requirements to mail relays (RFC 1123). In compliance with anti-
spam recommendations (RFC 2505 standard), the application employs access
