I'm sitting in the "Universal Acceptance Steering Group Workshop" at
ICANN in Buenos Aries. Decided to test the email of my own home grown
systems.
I run exim (4.84) on Gentoo.
User names are stored in MySQL.
I found a friendly Russian and he created the user "андрей@diver.co.za"
in my Database.
He found that GMAIL was able to attempt the delivery of a test mail to
this address but came back with...
------------------------------------------
Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:
андрей@diver.co.za
Technical details of permanent failure:
local-part of envelope contains utf8 but remote server did not offer
SMTPUTF8
--------------------------------------------
Is there a fix for this yet???
I guess I'm looking for full EAI compliance in my mail systems..
(EAI - Email Address Internationalised)
A similar test with "márk@???" worked just fine.
