RFC 2822 allows almost all ASCII characters in the local-part of an email address, but anything more complicated than [A-Za-z0-9._%+-] requires using a quoted-string. Unless you have a good reason to use unusual characters in a top-level user mailbox, it is best to avoid them. Check out: http://www.regular-expressions.info/email.html for a short discussion of this.
