3Com untagged vs. 802.1Q VLANs

Hi, In a SuperStack II 3300 switch (model 3C16980), firmware 2.71, there are untagged and tagged VLANs. Am I correct to assume that ports defined in an untagged VLAN are partitioned off from other ports, into their own broadcast domain? What will the switch do with packets destined for a host not in the untagged VLAN? Will it forward? I can see in the admin GUI where you can control forwarding of tagged packets but nothing specific to untagged.

thanks for clarifying the behavior of 3Com untagged VLANs.
