Salut Yves,

 Thanks for the report, but you definitely should report this directly
 upstream, it'll be faster.

I disagree that this is wishlist because without IDN users cannot send
emails to recipients with correct and RFC conform email addresses.

Just for reference:
I search the gnome bugzilla and found the following upstream report:

Yeah, sure, it'd be definitely better. But tbh I think there might be
some more important stuff to do before enlarging the perimeter. Like,
fixing all the bugs :) But I'm fine with severity: normal.

Thanks for adding it :)

Hello,

evolution (mail).
Sending an email with IDN email recipient will result in:

Jul 15 11:20:20 server postfix/smtpd[4374]: warning: Illegal address syntax 
from server.domain.com[11.22.33.44] in RCPT command: n...@k??the.de

Evolution does not translate the domain in punycode
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punycode which would fix the problem.
http://packages.debian.org/libidn can be used for this.

thx.

Regards.
