A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : SMTP Service Extensions or Transmission of Headers in UTF-8 Encoding
Author(s) : P. Hoffman

Mailbox names often represent the names of human users. Many of these
users throughout the world have names that are not normally represented
by the users with just the ASCII repertoire of characters, and would therefore like to use their real names in their mailbox names. These users are also likely to use non-ASCII text in their common names and subjects of email messages, both in what they send and what they receive. This protocol specifies how to represent all headers
of email messages encoded in UTF-8.

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.
Send a message to:
mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-hoffman-utf8headers-00.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.
