.SH NAME
or \- tables relate to the handling of X.400 O/R Names
.SH SYNOPSIS
<key> ":" <value> [<value>]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
.I or2rfc
is for mapping X.400 O/R Names into RFC 822 addresses. <key> is encoded as
\%dmn-orname (see RFC 987) and value as \%domain-syntax (see RFC 987).
When mapping, the longest possible match is always looked for.
.I rfc2or
has the <key> encoded as \%domain-syntax and the <value> as
\%dmn-orname. It performs exactly the reverse operation.
.PP
.I or
is used to evaluate O/R Names.
The <key> is encoded as \%dmn-orname.
The default algorithm for O/R Name analysis should be considered as
tree-walking.
The O/R name is sorted into order, as defined in
.I or (3),
and components are looked up: first level 1; then level 1 + level 2: and
so on.
This table is for performing these repeated lookups.
The RHS has four possible encodings:
.PP
"valid"
.IP
This means that this part of the tree is OK.
.PP
"mta"\ <mtaname>
.IP
This identifes the MTA <mtaname> as being associated with this vertex of
the tree.
This <mtaname> is a key to the PP channel tables.
The search should NOT stop at this point, as further tree searching may
determine a more optimal MTA.
.PP
"alias"\ <dmn-orname>
.IP
This identifies an alias, and indicates that all O/R components matched
so far, should be replaced with those dientified on the RHS, and the
search should now resume from the root.
.PP
"local"
.IP
This idententifies a local O/R Name.
The remainder of the O/R Name should be used, in some manner, to
determine a local mailbox.
