My question is: is anyone aware of a similar extension or even built-in function of a mail client, so that an E.164 number would be resolved to an email address?
Shouldn't this be part of the MTA, and not the MUA? After all, it's some kind of mail routing.
IMO the ENUM lookup should be done in the client before sending the Email to the MTA. Because if there is no email address asscoiated with the E.164 phone number, the client can show the problem to the user immediately, wheras the the MTA would have to generate an error message.
oh - another point for the "User experience" section in an Enumservice definition... cheers alex
