Going further... does PMDF have a way to talk to SprintMail?  We are hoping to
become a X.400 PRMD off TMAILUK (Sprint aka Telemail, in the UK) but in the
meantime are using the PC Sprintmail package via dial-up to access mailboxes on
the SprintMail host.  Lotus have a cc:Mail to SprintMail gateway product that
uses cc:Mail import/export much like the PMDF to cc:Mail gateway but it's
pricey and does not support binary attachments (strange because the cc:Mail to
MCI mail gateway DOES).  Looks like it would need a combination of the PMDF
cc:Mail gateway code plus some dialling code from PhoneNet and some...

Any ideas?  BTW the Lotus product SEEMS to only need ONE mailbox on SprintMail
to serve multiple real local users; sounds clever.
