https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=15489 --- Comment #24 from John C Klensin <john+w3cbugs@jck.com> --- Separately, it is worth noting that the internationalized email specs (RFCs 6530-6533 and 6855-6858) rather strongly discourage the use of Punycode-encoded strings in email addresses. Conversion of the local part of such an address (before the "@") loses information and, because the character repertoire requirements are different, may cause other problems. The domain part can be in A-label form (the preferred terminology these days), but, under normal circumstances, the conversion should be performed just before DNS lookup, not earlier in the application for reasons explained in RFC 6055. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
