# Delivery Method

Values of this syntax have values that are sequences of items that indicate the service(s) by which an entity can receive messages, in order of preference.

The syntax follows this ABNF:

```
DeliveryMethod = pdm *( WSP DOLLAR WSP pdm )
pdm            = "any" / "mhs" / "physical" / "telex" / "teletex" /
"g3fax" / "g4fax" / "ia5" / "videotex" / "telephone"
WSP            = 0*SPACE  ; zero or more " "
DOLLAR         = %x24 ; dollar sign ("$")
SPACE          = %x20 ; space (" ")
```
