SMTP = Simple Mail Transfer Protocol.

If we compare email to a comedy routine, then smtp would be a one-liner.

eg.
Jim plans a meeting and wants Bob and Sally to attend:

Jim could email Bob and Sally hoping for Wednesday 1:00. Bob email he's busy then,
<snip redundancy>

With SMTP:
Jim schedules Bob and Sally to attend his meeting Wednesday 1:00. A one-line pencils them in their planner as well, with an option to accept, decline, or decline with a raindate.

When they activate this decision, Jim's planner can show that Bob is busy all of Wednesday and can chnge his planner to an alternate date. Sally's planner is updated and considered as well. Blocked times would create an auto reply.

The benefit it that you don't need to send hundreds of emails (and await replies) to find out when everyone can attend.

Hey, this sounds kind of like Outlook, but I don't like bloatware.
