RFC 1465: Title: Routing Coordination for X.400 MHS Services Within a Multi Protocol / Multi Network Environment Table Format V3 for Static Routing Author: D. Eppenberger Mailbox: Eppenberger@switch.ch Pages: 31 Characters: 66,833 Updates/Obsoletes: none The usage of the X.400 Message Handling System (MHS) is growing rapidly, especially in the commercial world but much interest can also be found in the academic and research community. New networks and new addresses come into use each and every day. The underlying technology for different X.400 networks can vary depending on the transport network and the X.400 MHS implementations used. As a large number of X.400 implementations now support multiple stacks, this offers the chance of implementing a world wide message handling service using the same electronic mail standard and, therefore, without the need of gateways with service reduction and without the restriction to a single common transport network. This, however, leads to several problems for the MHS manager, two of which are: - Where do I route new X.400 addresses and - How do I connect to a MHS domain that uses an underlying technology that I do not support. This document proposes short term solutions to these problems. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community. Discussion and suggestions for improvement are requested.
