Looks like few mistake.
No, the report is correct. Roundcube and Apple iOS Mail are MUAs, user mail programs that work in connection with MSAs and MDAs. When configured to work with an L2 mail server such as Courier or Postfix, they both provide good L2 mail service. We tested them using accounts including 测试@电子邮件测试.中国 and اختبار@اختبارالبريد.شبكة Postfix is an MSA and MTA which also provides good L2 mail service when configured with EAI addresses. We tested it with a variety of addresses such as 用户1@后缀.services.net. R's, John
Roundcude do not provide Email Addresses , it can not be L2. It should L1 Apple iOS Mail 14.x - it can not be L2 , it should be L1 Postfix do not provide EAI addresses
L2= L1 + provides local EAI addresses
We all know roundcube and Apple Mail do not provide email addresses.
XgenPlus / Coremail provides these addresses today.

Hi all Maybe not relevant, but I noticed that my email SW did not recognise as valid email addresses “测试@电子邮件测试.中国” nor “اختبار@اختبارالبريد.شبكة” - and no big surprise so far - but what I found interesting is how the email address “用户1@后缀.services.net<mailto:1@xn--fqr621h.services.net>” is interpreted. It is recognised as an email address (it has a valid TLD and SLD and an “@“) but the translation stops short of the chinese chars in the user id. The email address is interpreted as being "1@后缀.services.net<mailto:1@xn--fqr621h.services.net>” - i.e. "1@xn—fqr621h.services.net<http://fqr621h.services.net>”. I am wondering whether in the testing of the acceptance of email addresses we include also test cases where the email address is considered “valid” but in practice truncated. Can somebody confirm that we are dealing with these cases already?
