I got answer from :

perryh@pluto.rain.com
rauthenberg@HHI.DE
bmaggio@lci.com
cwaters@emh-1.submepp.navy.mil
mark@isis.Berkeley.EDU
Birger.Wathne@vest.sdata.no
rjcronin@uop.com
tap116@nocc.minsy.navy.mil

        I got some solutions but unfortunately none of them are
working in my case. I think that it is related on how the gateway
SMPTP/X400 is configured. Here is an overview of the solutions :

1. Most people told me that I should replace the space by an =
2. The solution could be also to replace the space by an _
3. Another type of solution was to remove the line containing Oo
   in the file sendmail.cf
4. and last, there might be a jumbo patch solving this problem.

Thanks for your help.
