Microsoft Mail Gateway to Novell Message Handling System 3.0

This article was previously published under Q129745

SYMPTOMS

The MHS gateway does not process the [<intended host>] portion of an incoming MHS message. All address elements after the [<intended host>] field are ignored.

CAUSE

The Microsoft Mail Gateway to MHS was not designed to recognize the [<intended>] host field.

RESOLUTION

According to the Novell SMF "Programmer's Reference" pages 4-8:

NetWare MHS strips out the intended host address element before passing a message to a gateway ... gateway developers do not need to handle this address element.

MORE INFORMATION

You should contact either Novell or the company that developed the application that is generating the intended host address element before passing the message to the MHS gateway. The MHS gateway does not include the intended host address element in outbound messages.
