Does anyone have any infomation on reasonably priced X.400 solutions for PC's? In particular, we have several European locations for our company that would like to connect to a PUBLIC european network for Email ( what does that mean exactly ? ). We use SMTP and DEC mail extensively in the states, but unfortunately the remote European sites do not wish to use either. I have not personally used X.400, and would like any comments concerning this request. Is Europe using X.400 extensively, and if so, how connected is it. What transport mechanism are they using? Are they running the 84 or 88 version? What is the breakdown in Europe as to uucp style mail and internet ( SMTP ) vs X.400 use. As you can tell, I am not to familiar with the X.400 issues. Any comments/help would be appreciated.

This brings up my own situation, that of Master's degree candidate getting ready to work on my project/thesis. I am now to the point of having to decide what I am going to do. I am interested in possibly addressing this area, perhaps including development of some software. I too, am interested in hearing reactions on what still needs to be done in PC Email solutions. -- John Dudeck "Nothing is foolproof, because jdudeck@Polyslo.CalPoly.Edu fools are so ingenious."

Route400 from a company called NET-TEL in UK is a reasonable product. It includes a -84 mta and ua. For X.25 connections you can use at least EICON X.25 gateway (also a good product) and Symicron (I don't know anything). The mta implementation runs in a DOS machine and is stable! UA has everything you need. Matti
