SUMMARY
=======
Here are some examples of SMTP address syntax:
- USER@COMPANY.COM
- USER@UNIVERSITY.EDU
- USER@GOVERNMENT.APPS.GOV
- USER@US.NAVY.MIL
The "USER" portion is mapped to the mailbag name when the gateway receives the
message. This name can be no longer than 10 characters--something you should
consider when planning your naming conventions if an SMTP gateway will be used
in the environment.
The gateway maps everything after the @ sign to a network and postoffice name.
For more information on this topic, see the "Mapping Microsoft Mail Addresses to
SMTP Addresses" section in Chapter 3 of the "Microsoft Mail Administrator's
Guide."
