reqOutboundOriginator

Module: MESSAGE-TRACKING-MIB

OID (symbolic): MESSAGE-TRACKING-MIB::reqOutboundOriginator

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.3.73.2.1.3.1.9

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: DisplayString

Access: read-write

Description: Identifies the originator of the message in its transmitted form, expressed in string format. The style and format of this identifier varies according to a specific messaging technology. As a result of potentially disparate messaging technologies this identifier is only guaranteed to be the name known to the end-user on the last MTA in the delivery sequence. If reqOriginatorNameForm is set to 'x.400(2)' or 'smtp(3)', the supplied attributes will be considered in the match. Any attributes not supplied will be wildcarded. If reqOriginatorNameForm is set to 'freeForm(1)', this value is assumed to be a substring of the originator name. Set to an empty (zero length) string if unknown or irrelevant to query.

What is reqOutboundOriginator?

A search filter identifying the message's sender as it left this MTA toward the next hop, interpreted per reqOriginatorNameForm, useful when the sender address is rewritten in transit and the admin only knows the outbound form.
