<DIV>Gmail rolled out support for EAI (RFCs 6530, 6531, 6532, and 6533) today
for consumer Gmail accounts. So now, Gmail users are able to send messages to,

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: #0f243e">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 <A

moz-do-not-send="true"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: SimSun"

lang=ZH-CN>邓</SPAN>.<SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: SimSun"

email (ie <A href="mailto:dennis@%E9%82%93.%E4%B8%AD%E5%9B%BD"
moz-do-not-send="true">dennis@<SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: SimSun"
lang=ZH-CN>邓</SPAN>.<SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: SimSun"

where they also talked about IDNs in email but it was not clear whether they
will be supporting full EAI.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
