X400: MTA Not Found Error Message

The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400, version 3.2

The routing table requires that all literal blanks in an attribute value be escaped by a '\' but the Config utility does not do that for MTA names. For example: if MTA name is "MTA_Name" you must enter it as "MTA\_Name" in the routing table, or the routing fails with "MTA not found."

The requirements are:

  • MTA names are escaped in ROUTE.CFG, but written verbatim everywhere else. Output directories are escaped with underscores, and only the first 8 characters are used.
  • Advanced address mapping has spaces escaped to underscores.
  • Everything else is stored verbatim.
