Hi all,

I got postfix 3.0.4 running with SMTPUTF8 correctly some time back, using Docker.  You can see my recipes here:

https://gist.github.com/codebje/3652d6c2118ba7b0f38a39e1ac39a56d

However, while postfix provides mail transport services, it does not provide access for mail user agents to retrieve mail.  Thus far I’ve been unable to find a suitable combination of mail delivery agent and IMAP service which can let users read and respond to EAI, though I have not done any work on this since April.  At the time, The Horde webmail service was looking promising, but IIRC required an IMAP service available.

None of Dovecot, courier-imap, or Cyrus IMAP have support, neither via LMTP to deliver mail, nor via IMAP/POP3 to retrieve mail.  Additionally, none of their roadmaps mention EAI, UTF8, or internationalization in general.

A potential task for the group is to update the Wikipedia list of mail servers to add an EAI support column:

Subject: RE: [UA-discuss] EAI Implementation Issue

Thanks all for your replies , I already installed postfix “compile,installed” and I got the below warning although I already installed icu “dependencies”

postfix: warning: smtputf8_enable is true, but EAI support is not compiled in

and the Unicode files are already there as well.

Did anyone face this issue before ?

Or is there any advice ?

Thnx

Postfix is an EAI Ready mail server application.  Outlook2016 for PC is an EAI ready client.

Subject: [UA-discuss] EAI Implementation

Dear Colleagues,
                I hope you are doing well, I am trying to implement EAI at my testing environment and as you know dovecot is not compatible with EAI so any advice ?
Is there an email client who is compatible with EAI addresses ?

Thanks in advance.

Thnx
