These services are used by messaging applications, E  such as user agents and gateways. MAILbus 400 MTA provides the elec- F  tronic messaging services of an X.400 MTA, designed to conform to theF  1992 CCITT series of recommendations and the 1988 joint CCITT and ISOD  Message Handling System Standards and their subsequent revisions. AD  messaging network based on MAILbus 400 MTAs can function as all, orF  part of, a Private Management Domain or Administration Management Do-  main.  G  MAILbus 400 MTA uses DECnet[TM]-Plus for OpenVMS Alpha for OSI[R] pro- E  tocol support, and DIGITAL[TM] X.500 Directory Service for directory 
  services.  I  MAILbus 400 MTA operates over the OSI protocols, as supported by DECnet- E  Plus for OpenVMS Alpha. MAILbus 400 MTA can also operate over TCP/IP D  networks, using the RFC 1006 protocol, as supported by DECnet-Plus.H  The RFC 1006 protocol emulates the OSI Transport Service Protocol Class!  0 over a TCP/IP network service.   &  MAILbus 400 MTA can communicate with:    o  Another MAILbus 400 MTA   .  o  A VAX[TM] Message Router[TM] X.400 Gateway  D                                                           April 1999  D                                                          AE-QEFWE-TE         o  Another vendor's X.400 MTA  D  MAILbus 400 MTA provides management services conforming to the DIG-L  ITAL Enterprise Management Architecture (EMA), integrated with DECnet-Plus.D  This provides local and remote management of MAILbus 400 MTA opera-  tion.  F  MAILbus 400 MTA supports an interface for messaging applications suchG  as user agents and gateways. Access to this is provided by MAILbus 400 1  Application Program Interface for OpenVMS Alpha.   D  MAILbus 400 MTA provides the following services to collect informa-  tion about messages:   H  o  Accounting services, to record particular items of information about
     messages.   >  o  Archiving services, to retain complete copies of messages.  F  o  Message history logging services, to record information about mes-     sages for tracing purposes.   I  MAILbus 400 MTA provides an Interpersonal Messaging Service (IPMS) body- D  part conversion service, based on recipient capabilities registeredE  in the directory. The set of bodypart converters provided with MAIL- D  bus 400 MTA provides a selected set of conversions between the fol-  lowing bodypart types:     o  IA5     o  Teletex     o  ISO/6937  F  o  General text (for ISO IR repertoires covering ISOLatin1, ISO/6937,     and Teletex)  '  o  DEC[TM] Multinational Character Set     o  Message Router Text     o  WPS-PLUS[TM]  #                                   2        
  o  DECdx[TM]   E  MAILbus 400 MTA supports conversion between Externally Defined Body- D  parts and File Transfer Bodyparts. In addition to providing conver-D  sion services, MAILbus 400 MTA supports transfer and receipt of any7  X.400 IPMS bodypart types, and non-IPMS content types.   E  MAILbus 400 MTA is typically used in conjunction with other DIGITAL- H  supplied messaging products, such as user agents and gateways.
