Internet mail was originally limited to 7-bit ASCII. MIME added
support for the use of 8-bit character sets in body parts, and also
defined an encoded-word construct so other character sets could be
used in certain header field values. But full internationalization
of electronic mail requires additional enhancements to allow the use
of Unicode, including characters outside the ASCII repertoire, in
mail addresses as well as direct use of Unicode in header fields like
From:, To:, and Subject:, without requiring the use of complex
encoded-word constructs. This document specifies an enhancement to
the Internet Message Format that allows use of Unicode in mail
addresses and most header field content.
