I didn’t get any answer. Does somebody know if there was any progress in implementing the RFC 6531?
Sorry, I was on the wrong list.
is there hope to see dns server support rfc 6531 ?
how should dovecot and postfix handle both idn and eai maps, postfix is not ready yet there, its does not matter aslong dns have yet to support eai aswell
I’m sorry, but I’m a bit puzzled by your answer. What is the relation between RFC 6531 and the DNS? I’m clearly no expert, but I thought that RFC only specified an SMTP extension. How are DNS servers concerned by that? Anyway, Postfix already implemented SMTPUTF8. Having Dovecot do as well would allow for mail-stack that rely on both Postfix and Dovecot to send e-mail using addresses containing non-ASCII characters. That would be a big progress for people who wish to use internationalized e-mail addresses. And the last time I asked questions about it here, people said to me it was being worked on. Hence my question.

Hi there
Any update on this? I am running latest Dovecot 2.3.19, but lmtp still doesn't seem to support SMTPUTF8. In my mail.log I am getting the following bounces, while using smtputf8_enable = yes (which nowadays is the default) in Postfix:
status=bounced (SMTPUTF8 is required, but was not offered by host mail.example.com[/var/run/dovecot/lmtp])
(Dovecot running on the same server, mail.example.com = localhost, in this example)
Cheers, Philip
