      Description:
      Encoding and decoding of non-ASCII addresses

      Internet protocols do not define a standard for encoding non-ASCII characters in addresses. (RFC 1522 and RFC 2047 define an encoding for the "comment" or "phrase" parts of an address, but not for the "local" part). In some cases, when automatically generating an "Internet-style address" from a "Notes-style address," it is necessary for the IMAP4, POP3, and NNTP servers to use a special, reversible, encoding for Notes-style address. It typically appears as something like aaaa0xL1AAzbbbb@internet.com, where the "0xL1AAz" is a substitution for a non-ASCII character. The SMTP MTA can also generate this encoding (if unable to find an alternative ASCII address in the Name and Address Book), controllable by the NOTES.INI variable:

      SMTP_I18N_PHRASE

      When a message with this encoding is replied to, the SMTP MTA is able to decode the address into the original form and route it to the desired Notes user.
      If you are using an earlier version of the SMTP MTA than 4.6, you may have to add this automatically generated address as a "Short Name" in the user's Name and Address Book because the automatic decoding will not take place. Additionally, if your Notes domain name contains Non-ASCII characters, you may have to add the automatically generated address as an alias for the domain in the Global Domain Record.
