Description of Working Group:
The MHS-DS Working Group works on issues relating to Message Handling
Services use of Directory Services. The Message Handling Services are
primarily X.400, but issues relating to RFC822 use of Directory and
Directory support for RFC822 and X.400 interworking are in the scope of
the Group. Directory and Directory Services refer to the services
based upon the CCITT X.500 recommendations and additional ISO
standards, stable implementation agreements, and RFCs, as specified by
the OSI-DS Working Group. The major aims of the MHS-DS working group
are:
1. Define a set of specifications to enable effective, large-scale
deployment of X.400.
2. Study issues associated with supporting X.400 communities which lack
access to X.500 Directory, and define requirements for tools which: a)
extract information from the X.500 Directory for use by non-X.500
applications, b) upload information into the X.500 Directory.
3. Coordinate a pilot project which deploys MHS information into the
X.500 Directory and uses it to facilitate mail routing and address
mapping. The results of this pilot will be documented, and experience
gained from the project will be fed back into the Internet
specifications created by the working group.
Goals and Milestones:
Ongoing Provide a forum to discuss Directory support of Message Handling
Services including he operational aspects of X.500 based routing in
the Internet community andissues of migration from non-X.500 to X.500
based routing.
Ongoing Establish and maintain liason relationships with similar groups
working on X.400 and X.500, e.g. RRE Mail and Messaging Group, IETF
OSI-DS Working Group, IETF X.400 Operations Working Group and the
IETF MIME-MHS Working Group.
