	Both Touch and Retix (US companies that supply X.400 transports)
	offer implementations. I don't know anything about them other
	than that I think Retix gets theirs from Interactive Systems Corp..
	I'd love to see more info if someone has it, particularly since
	987 seems pretty useless for anything other than simple text.

Possibly you are missing the point.  RFC 987 (and its successor RFC 1138) is a
specification for gatewaying to RFC 822 mail.  822 mail is TEXT based.  It is
not possible for 987 or 1138 to describe anything else.
