X.400 is a suite of
ITU-T Recommendations that define standards for Data Communication Networks for Message Handling Systems (MHS) — more commonly known as "
E-mail". While X.400 never achieved the universal presence of
Internet e-mail, it has seen use within organizations, and as part of proprietary e-mail products.

<
messaging> The set of
ITU-T communications standards covering
electronic mail services provided by data networks. X.400 was widely used in Europe and Canada.
X.400 addresses tend to be much longer than
RFC 822 ones. They consist of a set of bindings for country (c),
administrative domain (a),
primary management domain (p), surname (s), given name (g).
For example, the X.400 address,
c=gb;a=attmail;p=Universal Export;s=Bond;g=James;
might be equivalent to RFC 822
