Go on, send me that email to 'à@jessen.ch' ... for what it's worth, I can't even define an account like that, so my mailserver might well reject it.
Yes, you are right. I was thinking of something else, namely that the LHS of the email address is case-sensitive -- this was something that was discussed about five years ago on the IDNS list, of which I attended. Considering that the list was created to solve the IDNS problem, I mistakenly remembered them were discussing IDNS problems, but instead they were discussing case-sensitivity. Sorry to add to the confusion. tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
