It is dangerous, stated many times. And so it is out of scope for UASG.

The reason this keeps coming up is the way "out-of-scope" is understood differently.

One meaning is "not interesting, won't talk about, somebody else's concern". Another interpretation would be "Universal Acceptance explicitly does not apply" (e.g. because these are dangerous).

I guess, people want to see the second interpretation of "out-of-scope" stated more emphatically.

However, even inside the valid IDNs there are many problematic issues (see e-mail by Andre and my follow-up). Those issues may require a discussion whether "universal acceptance" and "uncritical acceptance" are the same thing.

Emoji in Email address example is neither part of IDN nor DNS. Here it is part of mailbox name. 

My idea of sharing is that Google and office365 receives email successfully from email address where mailbox contains emoji, outlook deals it just like normal email and gmail shows it dangerous.

May I quote from the 2 March 2018:

 

..what we agreed to is that emojis are not part of the current standard for IDN/DNS. As such it is out of scope for UASG.

Betreff: [UA-discuss] interesting to note about emoji in mailbox name.

 

Some Interesting things to note:

I am testing with Two working Valid Email Address with heart shape.
❤@data.in and ♥@data.in 
 

( ❤ - xn--qei    and    ♥ - xn--g6h )

When I receive email from the above ID`s, In mobile devices these above hearts are shown in different red shades. 

However If I send email to Gmail / Outlook, they consider this as  Spam.  Not only spam, Gmail displays the following warning. - 

This message seems dangerous

The sender’s email address uses abnormal characters, which might be used to spoof real addresses. Avoid clicking links, downloading attachments, or replying to this message.

Probably, we need to discuss this too and have our views around it.
