Specification of the directory service required to support X.400 e-mail.
A standard which defines electronic mail directory services. Mostly used in Europe.
A standard that defines how global directories should be structured.
A directory standard that lets applications like e-mail access information which can either be central or distributed. The benefit of a directory is the ability to minimize the impact on the user of changes to a network. The standard is broken down under subsequent numbers
(including DAP). Directory Access Protocol developed by the ITU, is a standard for global directory services. X.500 defines object classes for a directory and a method for accessing names from a directory. The DAP X.500 protocol supports generalized browsing, directory administration, schema management, full authentication, and the infrastructure for internationalization.

A distributed directory interface allowing different vendors to store and access information on different systems.
The International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee standard for directory services.
A comprehensive but cumbersome directory information model. Many directories are derived from X.500 (e.g., AD) but are not fully X.500 compliant.

X.500 is a series of computer networking standards covering electronic directory services. The X.500 series was developed by ITU-T, formerly known as CCITT. The directory services were developed in order to support the requirements of X.400 electronic mail exchange and name lookup.
