- Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400, versions 2.1, 3.0, 3.2 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

When it builds an X.400 message, the Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 always sets
the P1 per-recipient flag to request basic non-delivery notification for the
originator.

If the originator requests return receipt notification, the X.400 gateway sets
the P1 flag to request:

- basic non-delivery (message could not be delivered)

- confirmed-delivery (message has been delivered)

- confirmed-read (recipient has opened message)

Confirmed-read notification always accompanies confirmed-delivery.
