Email address with non-ASCII character causes delivery error
0%
Description
I know that e-mailadresses with "ß" are invalid in general, but you can enter them in redmine. That causes that any notification to a ticket which are related to the person with the "ß" mail couldnt be send.
The "to:" mailadress in the maillog is something like "to=<=?UTF-8?B?bWFyY2VsLnBsYcOfQGJ1cmctZ21iaC5kZQ==?=>" for everyone who is related.
-> No one will be notified.

Yes, they can. More and more clients and server support that.
We cannot simply disallow them in Redmine.

Thanks for the advice. Now I understand that.

- Status changed from New to Closed
- Resolution set to Fixed
Redmine now supports internationalized domain names as of r22667.
Suppose you mistakenly enter user@straße.example instead of user@strasse.example as your email address. In that case, Redmine converts the email address to its ASCII representation user@xn--strae-oqa.example after clicking the "Save" button and displays the converted one on the screen. Therefore you will immediately notice there is some "problem" with the email address you entered.
1. Entering email address contains a non-ASCII character
2. The ASCII representation of the email address is displayed after saving
