In article <f57ec7e59aed47ce96f747f10c7468f1@verisign.com> you write:

Reject the transfer -- you get what you pay for.

Transfers only happen when a registrant asks for them. If registrars
find that they're losing customers due to inability to handle EAI
addresses, they can decide that it's an acceptable cost or they can
upgrade their software, either to handle EAI, or to ask the registrant
to change her e-mail address to an ASCII one and try again.

R's,
