MHS use of the X.500 Directory to support MHS Routing
Overview
RFC 1801, “MHS use of the X.500 Directory to support MHS Routing”, is an Experimental document published in June 1995 by S. Kille. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The key problem in routing is to map from an O/R Address onto an MTA (next hop). This shall be an MTA which in some sense is "nearer" to the destination UA. This is done repeatedly until the message can be directly delivered to the recipient UA. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
What “Experimental” means
Describes a specification that is part of a research or development effort, published so the community can gain experience with it.
