Abstract: The method for transmitting a message involves preparing addressing information for submission of the message from the mail server assigned to the first user over the network to mail servers assigned to the destination users. The addressing information and message are encapsulated in an MQ message. A queue list is created with the MQ addresses of those queue managers through which the mail servers can be reached. The list is used to determine the set of next-hop queue managers and generating associated queue sublists. - The MQ message is routed to each of the next hop queue managers together with a queue list being equal to the queue sublist associated with the respective next-hop queue managers now become acting queue managers. If the queue manager is found to be a queue manager in the queue list it gets the names of local queues from the queue list and delivers the messages to them. The process is repeated until the message has been put in all queues of the list. The MQ messages are retrieved with addressing information from the queues of the queue list. The addressing information is used to determine the set of destination users assigned to the mail server, each of which delivers the message to the destination user if the assigned destination user is local to the mail server. The process is repeated for the subset of destination users that is not local until the message has been delivered to all destination users.
