They won't work in django, or at least to send emails to them:
>>> from django.core.mail import send_mail
>>> send_mail('Subject here', 'Message here', '[email protected]', [
>>> u'[email protected]', ], fail_silently=False)

result.append(formataddr((nm, str(addr))))
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u9ed2' in

Django expects email addresses to be US-ASCII only.
