Re: [mailop] question regarding support for international characters {dkim-fail}

I don’t think that most software even supports EAI addresses. When I built WildDuck IMAP server (https://github.com/nodemailer/wildduck ) then while I had EAI and other i18n aspects (SMTPUTF8, RFC6855 etc) planned from day one then it was really difficult

Re: [mailop] question regarding support for international characters {dkim-fail}

Curious, isn't it, that the MSP EAI support we've talked about here is exclusively for other people's addresses, not for their own users? I know a few Indian providers that offer EAI addresses and I think a Chinese one. It's not surprising that the US providers don't do so, since as you note

Re: [mailop] question regarding support for international characters {dkim-fail}

The Gmail and Hotmail support handles other people's UTF-8 addresses in mail but they still don't provide UTF-8 addresses on their own systems. From what I can tell, Gmail and outlook.com's support is basically "just send UTF-8", that is, it will send EAI messages without the server offering the
