New X400GATE Command-Line Options
The following X400GATE program command-line options are additions to the ones documented in Chapter 5, &quot;Running the Gateway X.400 MTA,&quot; in the &quot;Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 Administrator's Guide.&quot;

-AP[8883 | 1] Application Protocol Option
This option sets the application protocol value on outgoing connections.

-AP8883 is for ISO.

-AP1 (the default) is for CCITT.

Most systems accept either value.

-RPLY Enable Reply MessageID Capture
With this option, all Microsoft Mail messages bound for an X.400 system are scanned to determine whether they are a reply to a message that originated from an X.00 messaging system. If so, the IPMessage ID of the original message that is being replied to is extracted and converted to the InReplyTo field of the outgoing message.

NOTE: This only works if the user replying to the message copies the original message text into the reply.

This option also displays the O/R name component of IPMessageIDs on incoming X.400 messages.

-F[A311 | NIST] Profile Selection Option
This option affects how the Teletex bodypart is encoded.

-FA311 selects the A/311 profile and causes the field teletexNonBasicParams.pageFormats to be set to '01'H on outgoing Teletex bodyparts as per the A/311 profile.

-FNIST (the default) selects the NIST profile and causes the field teletexNonBasicParams to be left to its default.

For more information on bodypart types, see &quot;Specifying BodyPart Types&quot; in Chapter 4 of the &quot;Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 Administrator's Guide.&quot;

-PMF[0 |1][0|1][0|1][0|1] PerMessageFlag Option
This option controls the values of the perMessageFlag found in the P1 envelope of outgoing X.400 messages:   -PMFxxxx, where &quot;x&quot; is either 0 (zero) or 1 (one). | contentReturnRequest |- alternateRecipientAllowed |-- conversionProhibited |--- discloseRecipients Note that the command-line option -Rc also controls the value of the contentReturnRequest flag (sets it to 0). The -Rc parameter takes precedence over the -PMF parameter. If both -PMF0001 and -Rc appeared on the command line. the perMessageFlag would be &quot;0000&quot;.

The default value for the permessage flag is &quot;0001&quot;.

You can specify less than all 4 flags:   -PMF1 ---> perMessageFlag = 1001 -PMF01 --> perMessageFlag = 0101

-Ar Reverse Address Rendering Option
This option reverses the address rendering order when addresses are rendered in abbreviated mode.

For example, the default rendering is &quot;surname, givenname initials, generationQualifier&quot;.

-Ar causes the address to be rendered as &quot;givenname, initials surname, generationQualifier&quot;.

-HA Expose Hidden Attachment Option
This command-line switch exposes the hidden attachments generated by the PC Mail system, which contain information about OLE objects. The default (when this parameter is not specified) is to remove these attachments when the message is converted to X.400 format.
