>The EAI situation is better than you probably think, mostly because the >unicode committee does very good work and the rest of the world is lucky >that it does. Oh, I agree. I was thinking of stuff like accented vowels which in French are usually considered close enough to the unaccented versions that you'd consider accented and unaccented versions to be the same name, as opposed to Scandinavian languages where the various forms of "o" are entirely different letters. There's also traditional and simplified Chinese characters which are equivalent except when they aren't. This has been an enormous can of worms for domain names, trying to figure out when names are close enough to be more or less equivalent and if so what to do about it. With EAI every MTA operator can do what makes sense in their situation but I'm guessing there will be as little consistency there as there is about what you do with dots and plus signs in ASCII local parts.
