Subject: Re: Government of Canada X.400/SMTP Gateway
I would ask the managers of this gateway to seriously consider converting their gateway to conform to the established standard, RFC 1327, for gatewaying addresses between Internet and X.400. I would secondly ask them to consider using mapping rules to make the communication between the two networks less painful. The standards violation: /C=<Country Code>/ADMD=<ADMD Name>/PRMD=<PRMD Name>/O=<Organization Name>/OU=<Organizational Unit Name>/S=<Surname>/G=<Given Name>/ I=<Initials>/DDT=<Domain Defined Attribute Type>/DDV=<Domain Defined Attribute Value>/@gemdes.carleton.ca In RFC 1327 syntax, this should be: /DD.<type>=<value>/G=<given>/I=<init>/S=<surname>/....../C=<country>/ @gemdes.carleton.ca Note that the default sequence is different, and that the encoding of the domain defined attributes is different. If mapping rules were used, a form of the address indistinguishable from a standard Internet address could be used for many common cases. Harald Tveit Alvestrand UNINETT, Norway Real X.400 user
