It can save you the time of doing research on your own. Also, _they have internal links to related pages in case you need to learn more about SMTPs._ Within the pages, you’ll not only find explanations, but also examples and diagrams. When you have all three, you’ll get a better understanding of how an [SMTP server](/content/smtp-gateways/smtp-server) works. Once you’ve read everything you need to on the Wikipedia pages, you can scroll to the bottom to look at their sources. This makes Wikipedia highly valuable to use since you can do further research based on credible sources they’ve aggregated for you already.
