In order to field test our X.400 user agent, for the last three months
or so, I have been running with two mail boxes (previously an SMTP/MH
addict).  Our PP system is configured such that mail comming to me via
SMTP is still delivered to MH, and X.400 mail to my X.400 UA.

I have been surprised by the amount of mail in my X.400 mail box,
considering most of my mail interaction is with Internet sites.

I think there is probably more X.400 mail on the Internet that people
realise.
