Subject: X.400 Interconnections
AT&T is announcing six new X.400 interconnections between AT&T Mail and
electronic mail services in the U.S., Korea, Sweden, Australia, and
Finland.
In the U.S., AT&T Mail is now interconnected with Telenet Communications
Corporation's service, Telemail, allowing users of both services to exchange
messages easily.
With the addition of these interconnections, the AT&T Mail Gateway400
Service allows AT&T Mail subscribers to exchange messages with users of the
following electronic messaging systems:

I am also notifying telecom-request in case the archives need to be corrected. You mentioned Lincroft, NJ in 2 places in your message. The 2nd occurrence had zipcode 08838, which should be 07738. And where is the phone number shown here: MHS Gateway: mhs!dialcom Administrator: Mr Laraman Dialcom South Plainfield, NJ 07080 Phone: +1 441 493 3843

You point out, quite correctly, some problems with zip and area codes in the AT&T Mail X.400 connection data I recently forwarded to TELECOM: >>I am also notifying telecom-request in case the archives need to be corrected >>You mentioned Lincroft, NJ in 2 places in your message.

Sorry about that. The zip code disparity you observed and corrected I never noticed at all -- mea culpa; and thanks. -- Fred

Were those all the countries with services like that? I happen to know that there are several Telenet services in almost all the western european countries. | Sten Peeters(sp@pro-palace) | | Co-Sysop@The Psychedelic Deli 215\678-5741 2400/1200/300 |
