SUMMARY
When you receive multiple icons in version 3.0 of the Microsoft Mail
Windows interface after sending one file from another Microsoft Mail
postoffice across an X.400 backbone, you do not have encapsulation
working.
When a Microsoft Mail postoffice sends a message to another Microsoft
Mail postoffice across an X.400 backbone, the message should be
encapsulated. This will ensure there is no loss of features or
functionality in the transportation of the message through the X.400
transport mechanism.
Two factors must be checked to ensure encapsulation will work:
- Do not use the "-re" command-line option for the X.400 gateway.
- Ensure that the postoffice across the X.400 network is set up in
the Admin program's External Admin menu as being indirect through
X.400.
When a postoffice is defined as indirect through X.400 in the External
Admin portion of the Admin program, the gateway knows the postoffice is a
Microsoft Mail postoffice and applies encapsulation. If this is not
defined in External Admin, the postoffice is thought to be another mail
package within the X.400 domain and encapsulation is not applied.
