<p class="MsoNormal">The assumption is that all local parts are ASCII letters-digits and that IDNs in the domain part should be expressed in punycode. This is of course doubly broken, because humans can’t really use punycode.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Fixing the local part is a good start and I encourage it. But if the domain name part continues to prohibit Unicode, it won’t actually help anyone.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is the plan is to fix the local part in v5.2 now and fix the domain name part in v5.3?<o:p></o:p></p>

<pre>Hi,<br><br>just to note that this week we reached a provisional agreement to change <br>the HTML email input type, and make it accept a unicode value before the <br>"@" instead of the current restriction to ASCII. Once we get this change <br>made and published - hopefully in a few weeks - we would appreciate help <br>encouraging browsers to implement it fast.<br><br>cheers<br><br>chaals<o:p></o:p></pre>
