The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail Gateway to MHS, version 3.0

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.
