You could try the RFC mail server at isi.edu

send a message to rfc-info@isi.edu, with one request per line:
    Help: Help
for a generalized help message
    Help: Manual
for a longish (30p) user manual
    List: RFC
    Keywords: X.400
for a list of all RFCs dealing with X.400

In case of problems, etc., send mail to rfc-manager@isi.edu
