X400: SMTP Address Dropped from To and CC Lists

ID: Q115349


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400, version 3.2


SYMPTOMS

If you send a message to the X.400 gateway with an SMTP address in the TO: or CC: list, the SMTP address is dropped.


CAUSE

SMTP addresses selected from the global/POSTOFFICE address list are displayed. One-off SMTP addresses (entered by the originator) are not displayed.


RESOLUTION

The gateway now creates a free-form name for all recipients as follows:

  • if only a foreign email address is available, enclose it in single quotes:
    'laurahal@microsoft.com'


  • use a friendly name if one is available, and put the foreign address in parentheses:
    Laura Halliday (laurahal@microsoft.com)


The SMTP address is shown with its friendly name but it cannot be replied to.
