[DS15] Communication via an intermediary

DS15  A party wishes to exchange a business message with another party.
      The sender has defined a trading partner agreement and the
      receiver has accepted the agreement which includes a
      Confidentiality Policy. The message header and the payload is
      encrypted and sent the from originating sender to an intermediary
      message service which is responsible for routing the request to
      the appropriate set of business partners defined by the
      recipient?s organization and documented in the trading partner
      agreement.  A positive acknowledgement is issued by the message
      service as well as the target recipients to the sender
      indicating a successful transfer. All routing headers have been
      digitally signed.
