Thanks Viktor, sorry but I don't understand this: you say Postfix works with ASCII on-the-wire, so if in my Postfix I create a virtual domain called "ñandu.gov.ar" you tell me that Postfix will automatically encoded it to Punycode and resulting the domain:
xn--andu-fqa.gov.ar ???? So I can create IDN domain names in my Postfix, and now my unique objective is ensure that mail clients (MUA's) work with IDN names and anymore ??? Thanks again !!!!
