The issue is likely due to the fact that the base protocol document for 
SMTP only allows for 'ASCII' characters in email addresses (and to a 
large extent anywhere in the headers of an email message). There are 
extensions with varying degrees of acceptance that extend this character 
set. (Note, I don't think SMTP needs to be 8 bit clean even for the 
message body, which is why we still have things like BASE64 and 
Quote-Printed encoding for messages).


A second part of the question is to what level does Python email 
libraries support these extensions and how easy is it to figure out how 
the local email system will handle messages that attempt to use them.

Mailman 2.1 does not support Internationalized Domain Names (RFCs
5890-5894 and predecessors). There are no plans for it to do so in the
future.

Mailman 3 currently does not support Internationalized Domain Names
either, but may do so in the future.
