[vip] Email Address Internationalization (EAI) and Gmail

[Jiankang Yao]

From Jordyn Buchanan's word, it is full EAI support.

It means that gmail supports both 福祥@邓.中国) and dennis@邓.中国).

Dennis,
 
The link to the entire session can be found at http://london50.icann.org/en/schedule/thu-public-forum. The transcript can also be found on the same link as a PDF file at http://london50.icann.org/en/schedule/thu-public-forum/transcript-public-forum-26jun14-en.
 
On your question of full EAI support or partial EAI support, I am not sure about that.
 
Thank you,
 
Fahd

This is indeed good news, however I’d like to confirm what you’ve heard at ICANN London (the link to the transcript below is not working for me). Is it EAI (eg 福祥@邓.中国) what they claim gmail will support or is it just IDN email (ie dennis@邓.中国). I recently watched a presentation in Google I/O where they also talked about IDNs in email but it was not clear whether they will be supporting full EAI.
 
If anyone could shed some light on this, it’d be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks!
Dennis

Friends and Colleagues,
 
During the Public Forum at ICANN 50 in London, Jordyn Buchanan from Google confirmed that Gmail will support EAI on their platform by the end of this month.
 
… by the end of this month gmail is going to be the first major mail platform with full EAI support, so you'll be able to email back and forth with gmail users at least …
 
You can find the scribe at http://www.streamtext.net/player/carttranscript?event=SANDRINGHAM-26Jun2014.
 
A good step forward for Universal Acceptance of IDNs.
 
Thank you,
 
Fahd Batayneh
