- Hi,
- I have an aching feeling that within a few weeks or months, my favourite
- X.400 implementation will be facing the dreaded brick wall of a
- CONFORMANCE TEST.
-
- Now, in preparation for this, I want to have the maximum number of bugs
- picked out of the product BEFORE going there.
- So, rumour and wishful thinking has shown two possibilities (apart from
- the obvious one of interworking with everybody; I already do that!):
-
- - Remote-controlled conformance testing services (like sending a mail to a
- server, and it spits back something horrible at you that you will have
- to handle)
-
- - Buyable/rentable protocol analyzers (like sending mail to a PC box, and
- it turns around and tells you exactly what it thinks of you)
-
- Now, does anyone have CONCRETE information that can get me further on
- either of these paths?
- Things like:
-
- - Product names
- - Contact addresses (E-mail, fax, phone or snailmail)
- - Approximate price (if applicable)
-
- As usual, I will summarize if I get more than 1 reply!
