Based on what I've seen of X.400 and having used it to send messages, a big question is why anyone would _want_ to use it. Maybe it's like some Catholics that get married, they didn't _want_ to, they _had_ to. :) > The groundwork for all this is defined by RFC1327, which > defines the basic formats for X.400 routing tables.

Also, check out my two Internet Drafts: <draft-robinson-mail-summary-00.txt> which attempts to cover X.400 a little including headers (and I see I missed a few), and <draft-robinson-newtelex-00.txt> which attempts to list X.400 providers.
