We are now beginning to understand the issues involved in attaching a PRMD
to multiple ADMDs within a country.

Draft British Standard Specification for Electronic Messaging Implementing 
ISO/IEC 10021 in the United Kingdom describes the UK approach to these 
problems.

Has anyone have any thought on what should happens when a PRMD in a country 
without any ADMDs wishes to use the services of an ADMDs in a different 
countries.  Does it means that they will have to use a foreign country code
for themselves?  What happens when this PRMD wants to use the services of
different ADMDs in different countries at different times?  Do they need
to use different country codes and therefore have different ORaddresses 
depending on which ADMD they use for the message?  Or is this allowed at all?
