Title : Internationalizing Mail Addresses in Applications
(IMAA)

The Internationalizing Domain Names in Applications (IDNA)
specification describes how to process domain names that have
characters outside the ASCII repertoire. A user who has an
internationalized domain name may want to have their full Internet
mail address internationalized, including the local part (that
is, the part to the left of the '@'). This document describes
how to use non-ASCII characters in local parts, by defining
internationalized local parts (ILPs), internationalized mail
addresses (IMAs), and a mechanism called IMAA for handling them in a
standard fashion.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-hoffman-imaa-01.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
