EAI - Email Downgrading edit
Internationalization (UTF8SMTP) extension allows UTF-8 characters in SMTP envelope and mail header fields. To avoid rejecting internationalized Email messages when a server in the delivery path does not support the UTF8SMTP extension, some sort of converting mechanism is required. This is known as Downgrading mechanism for Email Address Internationalization. The entire protocol is now part of RFC 6530,31. Dr. Ajay Data has enhanced and proposed the downgrading mechanism and instead of standard downgrading to punycode. Dr. Data has recommended to downgrade it to a desired ASCII email address. XgenPlus offers ASCII+EAI address in one mailbox and allows user to downgrade to either punycode or ASCII address. This method was demonstrated during UASG workshop in ICANN60 and was accepted as recommended practice for other EAI practitioners. UASG.TECH recommends downgrading to alias as a best practice.
