| Hi Thomas,
1. I worked till orchestrations. But did not come accross adapters anywhere
? When I created
receive locations and send ports, i used transport type as "file". I that an
adapter type??
there were other options like soap, sql, etc.
2. The difference between distinguish fileds and property fields are not
very clear. Is it
that property fields are only available for message routing but distinguish
fields are
available for orchestartions also? So why do we use distinguish fields at
all ?? not very
clear??
3. what is mime/smime. how do we detect the whether the incoming message is
of whihc type,
mime/ or smime? this seems to be a very basic question of mine 
4. Are pipeline and orchestrations mandatory? there can be a simple solution
without them also
but unlikely in real life enviornment. am i right??
Looking forward to hear from you?
Regards
Amit

| Hi Amit,
I will try to answer. Plz see my inline comments:

Ans - You are correct.
FILE, SOAP,... are examples of adapters. You will always associate an
Adapter with the Receive Location or to a Sent Port.

Ans - You would typically use MIME in receive or send pipelines. For
detecting MIME type in an incoming message you need to create an Receive
Pipeline with MIME component. You then associate this receive pipeline to the
receive Location.

Ans - PipeLine is mandatory but Orchestration is optional.
You would have noticed that you cannot create a Receive Location / Send Port
without associating a PipeLine. You can use any of the default Pipeline for
many scenarios.
Coming to Orchestration - Remember that Orchestration will always have
performance hit. You should ignore using Orchestration if you have alternate
way to do it.
And yes, you may not have any Orchestration even in an Enterprise solution.
