What we do is have an intermediate internal SMTP server that essentially wraps Notes
addresses into RFC821 (now RFC 2821) compliant addresses. This also allows us to have
that server act as SMTP relay for internal Unix/Linux/VMS etc. mail clients.
It doesn't have to be a big server (110 MHz Sparc that also acts as internal DNS
server).

I recall this being an issue for some in posts before this discussion. If
I recall the way to deal with this was limited to turning off raptors
proxying for lotus notes smtp connections. Has lotus or the raptor folks
looked into resolving this issue as far as you or others are aware?
