Strong fairness electronic service is the basis for secure electronic commerce, where the sender and the addressee require reliable evidence of the execution of the service. There are several proposals for protocols of electronic service proposed in the scientific literature, but they do not meet all the requirements set forth by the regulations for the electronic service in official procedures and are usually not defined in sufficient detail to allow for direct implementation. We have concluded systematic study of regulations for electronic service in the Republic of Slovenia from technical and functional point of view and identified requirements for electronic protocol service compliant with regulations using abstraction and consolidation. Using concretization we have proposed a protocol for certified electronic mail that builds on existing protocols and knowledge and works with existing infrastructure for the exchange of electronic mail, ensuring requirements defined by the rules for electronic service. The proposed protocol was validated and empirically confirmed as feasible in the form it was designed. We have discovered that protocols requiring reliable delivery of the message sent receipt have to be based on a trusted third party and consequently proposed definition for a fair off-line protocol for electronic service. After a detailed analysis, we found that existing protocols for electronic service in the Republic of Slovenia do not provide a fair off-line electronic service because delivery of the message sent receipt is not reliable and suggested a simple solution that eliminates the deficiency.
