Correction. I did not read the tables carefully enough.
<div class=""><br class="">
March 2018: 238 servers with SMTPUTF8<br class="">
September 2016: 83 servers with SMTPUTF8<br class="">

So the overall trend is upwards but there was a peak in May 2017 when there were 255 servers with SMTPUTF8</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>True, but in the old .su domain things are more encouraging, and the .ru domain (which is still the bulk of runet) shows a far steadier increase, with numbers measured in 1000s.</div><div><br></div><div>Is the drop-off associated with the first sets of renewal fees coming due?

My attention was grabbed by slide 12 of a presentation by Igor Lidin <a href="http://meeting.cctld.ru/docs/lidin.pdf" class="">meeting.cctld.ru/docs/lidin.pdf</a>

<div class="">I followed the link on that slide and found some interesting stats for Runet. It is good to see the steady year on year growth of servers in the рф domain supporting SMTPUTF8 <a href="http://statdom.ru/tld/%D1%80%D1%84/report/mxsmtputf8/#52" class="">statdom.ru/tld/рф/report/mxsmtputf8/#52</a> If,
like me, you cannot read Russian you can select English, top right.</div>
