117 for Finger is rather unofficial, I'd say. But it seems to have
become sortof an unofficially accepted object number.

have that in a set of DNA specs marked "From Antonio Carlini", I don't
remember more than that.
On the items you listed: Yes, 023 is NICE. 026 is shown in the registry
as "message router", that would be the store and forward machinery in
the heavyweight corporate mail product DEC tried to sell (part of
All-In-One as I recall). It was used internally but only by corporate
overhead people; engineers wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole and
stuck with Mail11. Yes, that's also used by VMS mail.
I don't know where 117 and 201 come from. Yes, 123 is PMR (also known
as PSTHRU), the poor man's router.
