I recently received this address to reach my brother overseas (Britain), but
I'm having trouble deciphering it.  I'd like to know if it will work, and if
not, how I can make it work.

 MHS!KCC/S=TIM/O=SERVER@ATTMAIL.COM.
              ^I'm not sure if this is a zero or an 'oh'.

So far I have some idea that it's some kind of gateway address between
 OSI X.400 and UUCP.  Still, this doesn't help too much.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Yes, I think it will work as is.  O= is the X.400 label for "Organization"
It is an upper case letter O, not a 0 (zero)
