Christian,

thanks for the helpful tutorial.

I want to remove a possible misunderstanding about MCI Mail: it
does not use underscores in its X.400 ORnames, but there exist
private mail systems which link to MCI Mail and which do use
the underscore character in their mailbox names. These strings
emerge into the Internet through our relay at NRI (which is
trying to do appropriate conversion where necessary).

Vint Cerf
