Exactly my point: if you use such email addresses you will make it difficult
for a lot of people to send you email. I know there is a reply button on
outlook and once your email is in my address book, I don't have to worry

To belabor what is perhaps obvious by now, RFC822 forbids 8-bit
characters in the local-part of an address (or anywhere else, for that
matter). The key lines are as follows:

Oh, and you'd need a *lot* more than two qmail files if it didn't do
this. What if someone sent to extensions like Mikko,
Hi,
I'm wondering if qmail will also lowercase the non-ASCII (or, "high
ASCII", 8bit) characters in local email addresses? For example, if
I create ~alias/.qmail-mikko:hänninen, will this catch both

Right, thanks for the answer. :-)
Yeah well since it doesn't support LOCALE 'n stuff, it can't now which
characters are special in your country.
Indeed, though it doesn't
Hi,
Maybe I am missing the point, but I thought that only 7 bits ASCII
characters were legal in an email address...
Just as a side question, how do I type the following email address with my
standard US keyboard ? Mikko.Hä[EMAIL PROTECTED] ? More precisely how do I type
the "ä" ?
Please don't
