OriginatorsDomain - Null-terminated string containing the name of the domain for the originator of the message.

RecipientAddress - Null-terminated string containing the distinguished name of the recipient.

Output : (routine) - Return status from this call -- indicates either success or what the error is. The return codes include:

NOERROR - Next hop located.

ERR_xxx - Errors returned by lower level functions. There are so many possible causes, that it is best to use the code in a call to OSLoadString and display/log the error for the user.

Action - Flag indicating the type of connection represented by the next hop. The values that may be returned and their meanings are described in the entry MAIL_ROUTING_ACTIONS.

NextHopServer - Null-terminated string containing the name of the next server to route the message to. The maximum length (in bytes) for this parameter is MAXUSERNAME.

NextHopMailbox - Null-terminated string containing the mailbox file name on the next hop server. The maximum length (in bytes) for this parameter is MAXPATH.

ForwardAddress - If the Action output value is MAIL_FORWARD, a null-terminated string containing the recipient's forwarding mail address. The maximum length (in bytes) for this parameter is MAXUSERNAME + MAXDOMAINNAME + 3.

ErrorText - If an error occurs, a formatted null-terminated string describing the problem. This message is intended to be returned to the originator. The maximum length (in bytes) for this parameter is MAXSPRINTF.

NextHopFlags - Additional flags describing the next hop server. If NEXTHOP_INTRANET bit is set, the next hop server is on the same network as the current server. If NEXTHOP_USESMT bit is set, SMTP will be used to reach the next hop server.
