Only if by almost all you mean sendmail and postfix. Subaddresses are popular here in nerd land but they're almost unknown elsewhere. Yahoo has an obscure subaddress feature which nobody uses. >2. What about GMail's [email protected] == [email protected] == >[email protected] == [email protected]? That's a better question. Having written a few books aimed at non-technical users and gotten a certain number of comments, it's clear that everyone expects upper and lower mailbox names to be equivalent, but have no general expectations about dots, + - and the like. The point about UTF-8 characters is a good one, but until there's a lot more experience with EAI, I don't see how we can say anything about a similar canonicalization.
