After reading this email i was under the impression that Postfix wont deal with UTF8 email addresses and made the test to check it out. Test was made with Postfix Version: 2.9.3-2~12.04.4 ( default config included in Ubuntu server 12.04)
220 lab10.anubis.via ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu) HELO lab16 250 lab10 MAIL FROM: <> 250 2.1.0 Ok RCPT TO: <josé@lab10> 250 2.1.5 Ok DATA 354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF> Subject: teste 123 Helooo! . 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as EA666700677 QUIT 221 2.0.0 Bye Is this the expected behaviour ? shouldn't the local part ( josé ) be forbidden ? Is there a way sanitize the address ? José Borges Ferreira On Mon, Jan 7, 2013 at 1:18 PM, Wietse Venema <wie...@porcupine.org> wrote: > Abdulrahman I.
