Does anyone have any infomation on reasonably priced X.400 solutions
for PC's?  In particular, we have several European locations for our
company that would like to connect to a PUBLIC european network for
Email ( what does that mean exactly ? ).  We use SMTP and DEC mail extensively
in the states, but unfortunately the remote European sites do not wish to use
either.

I have not personally used X.400, and would like any comments concerning
this request.  Is Europe using X.400 extensively, and if so, how connected
is it.  What transport mechanism are they using?  Are they running the 84 or
88 version?  What is the breakdown in Europe as to uucp style mail and
internet ( SMTP ) vs X.400 use.

As you can tell, I am not to familiar with the X.400 issues.

Any comments/help would be appreciated.
