A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Email Address Internationalization Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Internationalized Email Headers
Author(s) : J. Yeh
Filename : draft-ietf-eai-utf8headers-08.txt
Pages : 17
Date : 2007-11-19
Full internationalization of electronic mail requires not only the
capability to transmit non-ASCII content, to encode selected
information in specific header fields, and to use non-ASCII
characters in envelope addresses. It also requires being able to
express those addresses and information based on them in mail header
fields. This document specifies an experimental variant of Internet
mail that permits the use of Unicode encoded in UTF-8, rather than
ASCII, as the base form for Internet email header field bodies. This
form is permitted in transmission only if authorized by an SMTP
extension, as specified in an associated specification.

Send a message to:

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-eai-utf8headers-08.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.
