Advantis


  CompuServe Mail allows you to exchange messages with Advantis'
  electronic mail system via an X.400 interconnection.  Advantis
  operates a messaging and data network made up of services that were
  formerly operated by the IBM Information Network and the Sears
  Communications Company.  The Advantis electronic mail service is
  known as IBM Mail Exchange.

  SENDING TO ADVANTIS

  Proper addressing is mandatory to ensure mail delivery to Advantis
  from CompuServe Mail.  To send a message to an IBM Mail Exchange
  recipient, use the following format:

  X400:(c=us;a=ibmx400;p=ibmmail;s=SURNAME;g=GIVEN NAME)

  For example, if an IBM Mail Exchange user told you their address was
  "PRMD of IBMMAIL, Surname of SMITH and Given Name of JOHN", you would
  enter the following address in CompuServe Mail:

       X400:(c=us;a=ibmx400;p=ibmmail;s=smith;g=john)

  NOTE:  "X400:" must always precede the address, the address must be
  enclosed in parentheses, and the elements must be separated by
  semi-colons.

  RECEIVING MAIL FROM ADVANTIS

  The address that you should give to a user of any mail system which
  can route messages to CompuServe via an X400 interconnection is:

  Country=us ADMD=CompuServe PRMD=csmail DDA Type=id DDA Value= Your
  Mailbox

  For Public CompuServe Mail users, the DDA value is equal to your user
  ID with a period in place of the comma.

  For Private CompuServe Mail system users, this is your address in the
  form of EMI:MAILBOX, where EMI is the unique identifier assigned to
  your organization's private CompuServe Mail system.

  Advantis Mail Exchange users can also send messages to Novell Netware
  MHS mailboxes via the CompuServe Mail Hub.  The address that you
  should give in order to be reached at a Netware MHS mailbox through
  the CompuServe Mail Hub via X400 is:

  Country=us ADMD=CompuServe PRMD=csmail DDA Type=id DDA
  Value=mhs:username(a)workgroup

  NOTE:  The "@" symbol normally used in a NetWare MHS address must be
  replaced by "(a)" when used in a X400 address.

  NOTE:  For Advantis' public mail service users, as well as some
  private management domains, IBM Mail Exchange performs an "alias and
  registration" function.  This can occur in one of two ways.  An IBM
  Mail Exchange user can pre-register your CompuServe Mail address in
  the IBM Mail Exchange directory, before receiving mail from you.
  During this registration process, IBM Mail Exchange will assign an
  alias (a numeric string) to your address.  Alternatively, if a
  CompuServe user sends mail to an IBM Mail Exchange recipient before
  being registered, Advantis automatically performs the registration.
  Either way, IBM Mail Exchange users must address messages with the
  numeric string assigned to your CompuServe address.
