Ask HN: How is international (Unicode) email address support in 2022?
Playing with IDN domain names, I had several problems with services supporting such email address:
- Gmail doesn't allow me reply to a friend's email, though they could send to me
- GitHub would 500 out when adding a GPG key with a UID with Unicode email address
- Some services can't outright send the email to such an address
A thread from 2017 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14831756 and one from 2019 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19013617 showed that the support was poor. I wonder how it is in 2022?
