#14301: django crashes on email address that passed validate_email() (utf8-tld) ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: harm | Owner: nobody Status: reopened | Milestone: 1.3 Component: django.core.mail | Version: 1.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Stage: Accepted | Has_patch: 0 Needs_docs: 0 | Needs_tests: 0 Needs_better_patch: 0 | ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by philomat):
The relevant Wikipedia article (German only, http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-Mail- Adresse#Der_Dom.C3.A4nenteil_.28Domain_Part.29) says that with the introduction of IDN, nothing changes technically with regard to the SMTP protocol: Characters above ASCII code #127 are illegal. It is the client's responsibility to convert to an IDNA string. Hence, andialbrechts approach seems to be absolutely correct. -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/14301#comment:13> Django <http://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
