Do you mean that "Basic Latin" is for a set of characters and "ASCII"
for encoding of them in 7bit?

But surely it is obvious, and certainly so after your examples, that is  
there is to be a UTF8SMTPbis flag sent to a server by a client, then it  
HAS to be a per message flag rather than a session flag? Where did this  
idea of a session flag come from?

Kudos to Shawn for being both creative and diligent, in finding such a 
well-founded basis for an additional label to consider.

I had the same question as Yangwoo, but on re-reading Shawn's note I see that 
"Latin" comes from a reference to Unicode.  Therefore I think yes, Latin is the 
set of characters and "ASCII" would be an encoding of those characters.

Hence, the 2x2 table would be:



                  | Representation |  Encoding  |
                  +----------------+------------+
                  |                |            |
           Legacy |     Latin      |   ASCII    |
                  |                |            |
                  +----------------+------------+
                  |                |            |
    International |    Unicode     |   UTF-8    |

There are clearly two ways to tell whether a message to be relayed
needs an EAI server.  One is what we might call Deep Message
Inspection, scrutinize the message body and envelope to see if they
contain anything that classic SMTP can't handle.  The other is
Assertion, use whatever EAI flag the sender used.

My advice is simply to document the two possibilities and move on.
They both work, for plausible albeit different definitions of work.
Whatever we do, some people will do one, some will do the other.

The characters set of a message is a property of the message.

The encoding of the message is a property of the message.

Consecutive messages could -- and likely will -- have different character sets 
and/or encoding.  A single user speak to many different recipients.  A single 
email environment often supports many different users.  This combination means 
that the transport service needs to impose as few session limitations as possible.

A "session" flag would require establishing a new session in order to change 
character sets and/or encodings.  That makes it a highly sub-optimal choice.

Making character and encoding declarations work at a per-message level, rather 
than a per-session level is by far the better choice.

I seems to me that two different client assertions are being discussed
here, "I understand UTF8SMTPbis" and "The current message has non-ASCII in
the header".

Originally the idea was that Deep Message Inspection was able to determine
the value of the second assertion without a flag or command. However the
issue of allowing UTF-8 in responses to VRFY and EXPN raised the issue of
the first assertion in the absence of any message to be inspected.

I fear the only clean solution is both a session state setting command and
a per-transaction flag.

Correct, but it is also important to note that they are essentially disjoint in
terms of usage - the former is applicable to VRFY/EXPN, the latter to message
transfer transactions. So these are really two different problems.

Which is still true. It's not that deep inspection doesn't work - it does - but
rather that it's not good choice operationally.

Actually, while a session flag solution for VRFY/EXPN is nowhere near as sucky
as it is for MAIL FROM, it's not the cleanest solution either. The problematic
case would be some sort of lookup proxy, where sometimes the operation being
performed is amendable to a utf-8 return value and sometimes it is not. Such an
agent would have essentially the same issue with global state complexity.

Now, I'm by no means sure such agents - assuming they even exist - would be
worth catering to if it meant messing things up in some way. But it's not like
having either a command argument or a  separate set of commands are themselves
problematic for other reasons. So I'm inclined to stick with the VRFY/EXPN
parameter as the cleanest overall approach.

Well, if one is going to be completely precise, "Basic Latin"
and "ASCII repertoire" aren't synonyms.   We sort of got away
with it in IDNA because we did a bit of hand waving and had
already excluded all of the inconvenient punctuation, C0 control
characters, etc., from consideration in other ways.  Unicode
gets away with it because they define things that way, but that
isn't the only common usage of that term, it is a local
definition.  We can make it a local definition here too, but
only at the risk of using a term that is used differently
elsewhere in a special way.  I don't have a problem with that if
the WG is ok with it.

But the state of the C0 controls actually is important because
they are valid, if little-used, in 821/822/5321/5322 email.  The
WG has discussed, and I think agreed on, prohibiting them if EAI
features are needed (deliberately vague-- another issue), but
they are still valid in legacy, all-ASCII, addresses.

If one is comparing to Unicode and ignores the ASCII embedding
problem, there is an ASCII repertoire and a Unicode repertoire,
a native encoding for ASCII and three native encodings for
Unicode.  

FWIW, Unicode code points are usually expressed as a range of
hexidecimal integers (with the normal notation of U+[N[N]]NNN)
and  ASCII code points have historically been expressed either
as a decimal number or in row/column form, e.g., 4/1 for upper
case A).

The ASCII repertoire, however, includes not only the letter
characters that Unicode calls "Basic Latin" but much of the
linguistic and writing system communities do not.  As Unicode's
definition and Shawn's note only partially point out, those
letters aren't Basic Latin:  classical Latin doesn't use W,
differentiate between U and V or I and J, etc.).  And the ASCII
repertoire also includes a set of Indic-Arabic digits that
classical Latin definitely does not use (and doesn't include all
of the characters needed to write classical Roman numerals), a
collection of so-called C0 controls (characters 0/1 through
1/15), and character 7/15.

We actually already have a term for ASCII in the native encoding
and IETF 8bit embedding.  We've been calling it "NVT" for many,
many years.  The only problem is that there has been an
ambiguity for almost that many years as to whether NVT includes
some or all of the C0 controls.   These problems are not new.

Once one accepts those definitions, and ignores the other two
native encodings for Unicode, we've got an updated version of
Dave's 2x2 matrix.

However, the most important, and most difficult, term needed to
make the relevant distinctions is what we've often (and
sloppily) called non-ASCII.   Due to some duplications in
Unicode, it isn't the set difference between the Unicode
repertoire and the ASCII repertoire unless one accepts that
those duplications are actually different characters by virtue
of being coded differently (an assertion that much of the
linguistic and writing system community rejects).  Instead, it
has to be defined in terms of ranges, e.g., Unicode code points
above U+007F.

Let me say differently what I've tried to say before:  If the
right solution at this point is for the WG to define its own set
of words (per Andrew's proposal or some variation), I'm ok with
that.   If, however, we are going to use words with definitions
that are slightly different from definitions and usage
elsewhere, I think we do a real disservice to the community if
those definitions are not made IETF-wide (a job that lies
outside EAI's scope).  Otherwise, people reading specs will have
to figure out what a given term means in the context of that
spec.  I think most of us have already had ample experience with
where that expectation leads -- people skip over definitions
that they are confident that they know and then guess wrong
about what the spec means.

Why does the current work require a formal term for that (sub)set?

The reference to that subset of Unicode is -- or, rather, should be -- actually 
quite limited.

In the specifications, almost every reference to "non-ascii" actually means 
"Unicode", rather than "the subset of Unicode that is above x07F."  That is, 
they appear to be making the reference to "non-ascii" when that should not be 
what is really meant.

I've posted more than one note asking this question.  Perhaps I missed the 
responses that provide a clear and compelling argument for needing the term?

Dave, perhaps you haven't tried writing specs or developed code
in the i18n area and that is why this seems obvious to those who
have but not to you and, hence why explanations that seem "clear
and compelling" to some of the more active participants in this
work seem less so to you.  Let me try a different explanation in
the hope that it will make sense to you.

At first glance, one should only have the situation your matrix
seems to assume: ignoring encoding and embedding issues, a
string is either ASCII or it is relatively unrestricted Unicode.
And, if it is the latter, one doesn't need to worry about ASCII
as a distinct subset.  In practice, Unicode outside the ASCII
range always seems to carry a certain amount of baggage with it:
requirements for normalization, case and character comparison
situations that can use a number of different rules, alternate
collation sequences (possible with ASCII too depending, e.g., on
whether one thinks in terms of "ABC...abc" or "AaBbCc..." but
with far fewer alternate variations), and so on.   The result of
this is that, when one actually sits down to sort out the
details of specs, the situation often comes down to a need to
talk about the difference between a string containing only
characters from the ASCII repertoire (regardless of what one
decides to call that) and a string of characters from the
Unicode repertoire that contains at least one character outside
the ASCII range.

A recent discussion on this list about local parts provides a
fairly typical example.  A particular address is
internationalized, requiring EAI extensions be present, iff it
contains at least one Unicode character outside the ASCII range
in either the local-part or the domain part (or a display name
containing Unicode characters outside the ASCII range encoded in
UTF-8 rather than as encoded words).   It isn't sufficient to
write that rule as "Unicode" or "UTF-8" because the ASCII
repertoire is a proper superset of the first and the ASCII codes
(embedded in 8bit fields) are proper supersets of the latter.

Hope that helps.

To amplify on my previous note with another example, consider
the VRFY/EXPN situation.  If the server receives an all-ASCII
argument, the condition in the spec is that it MUST NOT return a
string in which any characters outside the ASCII repertoire are
present.    One can figure out lots of more or less convoluted
ways to say that (the above is an example), but the obvious ones
all involve having a term for what has, in IETF i18n
terminology, traditionally been called "non-ASCII".

At one level, harking back to the years when I pretended to be a
mathematician (or at least an aspiring one), this really appeals
to me.  At another, I believe that "proper utf-8" (no matter how
punctuated) will be read by most non-mathematicians and even
some mathematicians who haven't been alerted to the special
usage) as the opposite of "improper UTF-8" or "invalid UTF-8".  

Unfortunately, that is a real category.   A small oversight in
the original UTF-8 spec (see RFC 2044 and elsewhere) permitted
there to exist situations in which two [bitstring-] different
UTF-8 strings would map to/represent the same Unicode code
point.  That was later corrected (see RFC 2279 and 3629 and
elsewhere) so that the longer of the two encodings became
invalid.

This discussion reveals that we need to be clear about whether terms
are about a set of charcters or about a string. In the context of EAI,
I thought (and still think) that the latter terms are enough.

In other words, we need to have a term for "non-ASII string" not for
"set of characters > 0x7f".

Well, I've been trying to stay within the bounds of Dave's
rather neat little matrix, but your note reminded me of how much
difficulty we've had with that distinction, starting with the
use of "variant" to describe both individual sets of characters
and labels that contain one or more such characters in early
versions of what became RFC 3743 (a problem that continues to
confuse ICANN even though we corrected in in 3743 before it was
published).  It adds a third dimension to Dave's table.

I would say that we need a term for "string containing at least
one character outside the ASCII repertoire".   I don't think EAI
needs a special definition for the set of Unicode characters
outside the ASCII repertoire, but other protocols might.  We
should at least be aware of that possibility so as to avoid
choosing a term that would create even more confusion when the
set terminology is needed.

In fact the IETF use of the term "ASCII" usually is imprecise in the same way.

The original term was "Network ASCII" as was defined for a Network Virtual 
Terminal.  It is a subset of full ASCII.  Interestingly, it is discussed at 
length in RFC 5198...

However although the fine-grained details of this distinction are highly 
relevant for someone writing code they are almost never relevant to other 
discussions.

I believe the same "permission" for being casual with the label "Latin" can 
reasonably apply here.  Within a community that is conducting discussions on a 
topic, it is common, efficient and productive to use labels that are approximate 
rather than precise.  Simplification is the essence of defining useful categories.

The challenge is to make sure that the scope of the community is appropriate. 
So, for example, terminology that is specific to one working group but different 
from terms used in a related working group is almost certainly a bad idea. 
Terminology in one standards group that directly conflicts with that of another 
might also be problematic.

Also, there is the potential -- and occasionally the reality -- that casualness 
in terminology masks sloppy thinking and sloppy specification.  The group 
certainly needs to be careful in make its choices.

The purpose behind the 2x2 matrix is to define a particular scope, between 
original Internet and international Internet.  That's a constrained environment, 
but useful, environment.  The constraint permits excluding quite a bit of 
related, but not essential, terminology and discussion.

Speaking of related...

I am increasingly developing the view that reference to "non-ASCII" should be 
rare and quite isolated.  From the working group specifications and from 
postings on this list, it appears to be used as a synonym for Unicode or UTF-8. 
  This can lead to the erroneous view that an all-ASCII string is not Unicode.

While the presence of "non-ASCII" does indeed define data as Unicode, data 
containing only ASCII also can be Unicode.

Hence a distinction such as "Latin" vs. "Unicode" needs to depend solely on an 
explicit label for the data and not depend upon inspecting the data before 
deciding on what label to use.

If the group moves away from inspecting the data and then defining its type 
based on that inspection, and instead moves to explicit labeling, it will have 
very restricted need for referring to "non-ascii".

For VRFY/EXPN, when a client declares it can support Unicode, the server does 
not have to worry about whether the responses contain ascii or non-ascii.  When 
the client has not made this declaration, a server can reasonably deliver only 
responses that are ASCII.  The only interesting case is when the server wants to 
provide Unicode strings that happen to be only ASCII.   In this case, 
"non-ascii" does not mean "Unicode"; it means "a character that was not ASCII 
was found".  But this is an extremely specific situation for the working group's 
specification; there are few others.

Actually "non-ASCII" is used (in a very few places I think) to indicate the=
 characters >=3D U+0080.  Eg: the characters that force the use of EAI and =
which can't be used in legacy SMTP addresses.

Please, let's be _very_ careful about this.  In Unicode-speak
(at least most of the time), "Basic Latin" (the term you used)
refers to a subset of the U+0000 to U+007F range.  Which subset
is actually not well-defined: the U+0000 to U+007F code block is
titled "C0 Controls and Basic Latin".  But the category groups
within the code block are divided up as "C0 controls", "ASCII
punctuation and symbols", "ASCII digits", "ASCII punctuation and
symbols", "Uppercase Latin alphabet", "ASCII punctuation and
symbols", "Lowercase Latin alphabet", "ASCII punctuation and
symbols", and "Control character".   

There are two things that are important about this: the "ASCII
punctuation and symbols" group is not contiguous -- an
inconvenience, but probably not a problem-- and their explicit
use of the term "ASCII" to describe parts of the range in that
block in spite of the fact that the "ASCII repertoire" is the
entire block, including the C0 controls and the odd,
one-code-point title that Unicode assigns to U+007F.  These
titles are an editorial convenience in the Unicode definition;
they are neither normative nor guaranteed to be stable, so, if
we are going to depend on them, we probably need to reference a
particular version of Unicode (not a good idea when avoidable,
as several IETF activities have learned the hard way).

Second, while you said "Basic Latin", Dave's revised chart said
"Latin".  In Unicode-speak, "Latin" refers to a script (or
script family).  That script, according to Section 7.1 of
Unicode 5.0, includes the letters of Basic Latin and the Latin-1
supplement; the characters of Latin Extended-A, B, C, and D,
Extended Additional, and Ligatures.  It also includes the IPA
and Phonetic Extensions, whose inclusion in "Latin" on any basis
but derivation is debated by linguist and phoneticists.  Again,
while the block definitions (i.e., ranges of code points) are
stable, there are no guarantees about the names.  The list is,
in principle, open-ended: new characters and new blocks could be
added at any time.

But, most excitingly, "Latin Script" (as in 7.1), does not
include either the ASCII punctuation and symbols (a few of
which, like period and hyphen and maybe space and "@" are
important to EAI), nor does it include the so-called European
digits (which are also important to EAI).

Shawn, let me suggest a few guidelines, all of them derived from
experience with IDNA, the development of the various JET and
CDNC "variant" documents, ICANN's attempts to engage with IDNs
and variants, and some closely-related work.  Perhaps they will
put the reasons I'm being careful (or resistant) into
perspective.

(0) While it implies risks and is not a strategy I prefer to
advocate, we can often get away with informal uses of terms that
are not precisely defined.  When it is clear we are doing that,
people can often figure out what is intended from context and
get that right.  While precise, formal, definitions are better
than that sort of informal/contextual approach, formal
definitions that are imprecise or that fail on one or more of
the criteria below are usually even worse.

	(1) It is a bad idea to use the same term in different
	IETF specifications for two different things.  Doing so
	causes people to skip over local definitions (even if
	they are present) and read things based on what they
	think the words mean.  That, in turn, leads to trouble.
	When feasible, we should even avoid definitional
	conflicts with non-IETF-stream RFCs.  
	
	(2) If Unicode uses a term, we should either use that
	term in exactly the same way they do or not use it at
	all.   If they use a term, but use it inconsistently or
	ambiguously, we are better off avoiding it. 
	
	(3) Borrowing a bit from an ICANN discussion, we should
	avoid affiliating ourselves with the Humpty Dumpty
	School of Philology, i.e., claiming that common words
	mean whatever we say they mean (but being willing to
	supply those definitions and being reasonably consistent
	about them).
	
	(4) Staying out of the Queen of Hearts School of
	Philology, in which words mean whatever one wants them
	to mean at the moment, with no obligation to explain the
	definitions, is even more important.

That list has some obvious corollaries:

	-- If we are going to try to define terms that are
	likely to be picked up and used throughout the IETF, we
	need to either get the work out of EAI or make certain
	we look backward at IDNA, forward at the PRECIS work,
	and sideways at Unicode and whatever other i18n work may
	be coming in the IETF.
	
	-- If we are going to try to use common terms in a
	specific and precise way, it isn't going to be easy.
	
	-- If the WG is still committed to getting this work
	done quickly, and precise terminology is an objective
	(or requirement), then we are probably better off
	defining terms that are clearly EAI-specific (following
	the lead of Andrew's suggestion) rather than trying to
	sort out precise and usable definitions for terms in
	more common use.    The alternative could easily hold us
	up for several months as authors waited while we tried
	to sort terminology, get agreement from other relevant
	groups within the IETF, etc.

best,
    john

And my point is that the "force the use" reference is an example of having the 
label derived from the data, rather than have the label /dictate/ the data.

It's not that the derivation is wrong; it is that it is limiting.

In each of the places that the language does this sort of "force the use of EAI" 
perspective is document, the group should consider whether it is, instead, 
possible to have the language be strictly in terms of a Latin-vs-Unicode "mode". 
  A specific benefit of this will be to permit all-ASCII to be classed as 
Unicode rather than Latin.

Yes, I was a bit worried about that. So how about "UTF8_PROPER".

+1. I think session flags are a Bad Thing in themselves, and would much  
prefer to cover the VRFY/EXPN case with some UTF* parameter for that  
command (indeed, we could allow that parameter for ALL commands, though  
MAIL/VRFY/EXPN are the obvious beeficiaries).

Note that a client MUST NOT send that parameter unless it is aware, from  
and earlier EHLO, that it is allowed. I think that solution was gaining  
consensus in John's recent poll.

(writing as co-chair)

Hi.  

In the interest of full disclosure and avoidance of surprises...

Joseph, Alexey, and I had a discussion about how to organize
consensus calls on the many issues that have been brought up by
reviewers or by the responses to those reviews.

We concluded that, since I've been much more actively involved
in the discussions, have written a review response, and have
taken positions on several issues, Joseph will make the final
decisions about consensus calls (in terms of questions to be
asked), ask the questions, and evaluate the results.  I provided
him (and the design/author team) a preliminary list of draft
questions, but he will need to add additional questions and is
free to use my list (or not use it) in whatever way he finds
appropriate.

I've also given him two pieces of advice which, again, he can
ignore if he is so inclined:

	(1) That he check proposed text with the author group in
	the hope of saving the WG time.  That proposed text
	isn't about answers, just draft questions.
	
	(2) That he try to get agreement, and call consensus as
	appropriate, on broad issues before trying to lock down
	the details.  For example, we decide whether we really
	need a parameter on the MAIL command before trying to
	formally reach consensus on what that parameter should
	be called, whether it has values, etc.

best,
   john

p.s. for those who joined the WG list since this was last
mentioned, there is a separate mailing list to which all
document authors have been invited to subscribe (at least one
author is subscribed for each document) and which also includes
the co-chairs, secretary, and both ADs.  It is variously
referred to as the design team list (which is how it started,
long ago) or the author list, but really serves a coordination
function rather than a design or equivalent one.  It obeys all
of the usual constraints for a standing design team list, with
the additional constraint that it has retired from design and
hence isn't even trying to guide or offer options to the WG from
a design standpoint.  I don't believe its existence should
affect the WG in any significant way, but wanted to be sure
(again) that it wasn't a secret either.

Hi all,

Recent reviews raised some concerns and the WG had discussions on =
various issues including negotiation mechanism, protocol logic, =
terminologies, document style, etc. =20

As John mentioned in separate email; John, Alexey and I had discussion =
on how to organize consensus calls.  And before heading to consensus =
call, we will confirm with the WG on the set of questions.  Once the set =
confirmed, we will proceed in discussion on each topic and will evaluate =
the results.

(1)
Should the WG add parameter on MAIL FROM to start EAI transaction and =
avoid the need for deep inspection?

(2)
Should the parameter be permitted only if VRFY or EXPN appears =
subsequent to an EHLO response that includes UTF8SMTPbis?

(3)
Should the WG remove repetition of normative text from other documents =
to the extent possible.  Incorporate by reference and, where necessary, =
note explicitly that tutorial / context-providing references are not =
normative.

If the WG remove the repetition of normative text, will it make the =
draft hard to read?  If not, are there any text in current draft may =
result in inaccurate or confusing information because by update of other =
RFCs?

(4)
Should the WG replace references to "ASCII", "non-ASCII", and "UTF-8" =
with new or different term s that precisely and accurately identify what =
is intended?

(5)
Should the WG add additional text for gateways?

(6)
Should the WG add additional text for ticket systems that interface with =
email address, internationalized string, log, and traces?

(7)
Should the WG keep the decision about nested encodings and the use of =
message/global as described in RFC5336 and RFC5336bis? Or is a different =
model needed?

(8)
Once errors are corrected, is the current metalanguage model (including =
the 'u' prefixes) acceptable?  If not, should only those rules be =
included that are modified from RFC 5321 or 5322 respectively, forcing =
the user to reference the original documents for parts of substantially =
every rule?

-------
Note: Issues (5) and (6) were extracted from review composed by Claudio =
Allocchio and there are lack of discussion on them.  For more details, =
please refer to Claudio's review =
(http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ima/current/msg03621.html)


I am also working on the issue tracker, and will send out the track =
number as soon as possible for questions agreed by the WG.

Regards,
Joseph, co chair of EAI=

I've been watching the discussion about this and thinking about it
myself, weighing the arguments everyone's been giving.  And I've
decided it's time to step in and give my own opinion.

I think it's very important to make the distinction between characters
("Unicode") and encoding ("UTF-8"), and to (1) be rigorous in the
documents about using the terms we choose, and (2) choose our terms
and define them clearly.

I'm sympathetic to the arguments about what's been used, misused, and
inconsistently used in the past.  I'm sympathetic to the arguments
about trying to define terms in this document, given that the
definitions are needed more broadly, that people can't be depended
upon to read and understand *our* versions of the terms, and so on.

Nevertheless, I think it's what we have to do.  I don't much care
whether we choose (1) "Latin" characters and "ASCII" encoding, (2)
"ASCII" characters and "7-bit" encoding (which is defined in RFC 2045
in a way that I think is adequate and e-mail-related), or (3)
something else.  What I care about is that we settle on something,
define what we mean clearly, and move these documents forward without
too much more delay.

I also think it's important to maintain the concept of a string that
contains characters that are not in the ASCII character set (what
we've been calling "non-ASCII").  I think we can limit the use of the
term we choose for that to the "characters" side of things (and not
use it for the "encoding" side).  For example, we might say (contrived
example, just to make the point) "a string that contains non-ASCII
characters [or non-Latin characters, or whatever] MUST be encoded with
UTF-8 encoding.

Finally, I think that in order to make things absolutely clear, we
NEVER use the word "character" when we refer to encoding, and we
ALWAYS use the word "encoding" and treat "ASCII" or "7-bit" or "UTF-8"
as a modifier, not as a noun (in other words, we NEVER say just
"UTF-8", but ALWAYS "UTF-8 encoding").

I am willing (eager, I might even say) to draft a document section
that does the definitions, to give us something specific to talk
about.  I'll wait until someone appropriate tells me to go ahead with
that before I do it.  But I think that if we have definition text to
talk about, and if we take the approach that we need to do this as
well as we reasonably can, but understand the futility of expecting
perfection, we can get this settled and move ahead.

Jiankang,

Thank you for the follow-up.  I certainly admit to my having been confused about 
this part of the specification.  Yours and other's comments have clarified this.

To start with a basic point of agreement:

    An EAI server must not send UTF-8 data to a non-EAI client.

Any discussion therefore needs to be based on this absolute requirement, and I 
definitely did not mean to suggest that the rule be violated.

(There is also the requirement that an EAI client must not send UTF-8 data to a 
non-EAI server, but the proposed SMTP extension keyword solves that problem is 
the simple, usual way.)

The current specification is based on the idea that the server can treat a 
client as supporting UTF-8 if the server receives UTF-8 message or address data. 
  This requires inspecting address strings, for VRFY and EXPN, for example. 
(The client is not permitted to send UTF-8 unless is sees that the server can 
support it.)

Hence, the client/server interaction moves from ASCII to UTF-8 as an artifact of 
some address data representation.  This kind of protocol characteristic often 
has limitations and side-effects that are undesirable.

The alternative that has been suggested is to have the client add an explicit 
parameter to declare use of UTF-8.  This is a much more clean and common 
approach for switching "modes" in a protocol exchange.

I think the relatively appropriate approach is the simple and usual method of 
adding a parameter to MAIL, EXPN and VRFY.

It should be permitted whenever VRFY or EXPN is permitted.  In other words, this 
enhancement should not change the basic SMTP state machine.

Removal will simplify the current text.  Simpler specifications usually are much 
easier to read and understand.

The changes made by this extension should be relatively specific.  Hence they 
should not require going back and forth between the based SMTP specification and 
this extension specification.  In addition, anyone who implements these changes 
already needs to be familiar with the SMTP specification.  They do not need to 
be reminded of some details but not others.

Concern for inaccuracy or confusion is most serious for the future, not the 
present.  However even in the present there is a problem that copying part of 
the text from another specification means that the copied text loses the context 
in which it was written.  This can produce significant misunderstandings.

Yes.

Probably not, unless the working group wants to specify interworking between 
ASCII and UTF-8 environments.  (My understanding is that the WG decided NOT to 
support this interworking.)  The design needs to be reasonably friendly to 
gateway work, but that is different from actually doing specification.

I don't have an opinion about this, yet.

No.  The working group should not change MIME encoding rules.

I think the ABNF changes are better, if 'replacement' rules being with a string 
that can be reliably and accurately parsed, such as 'utf-' rather than 'u'.  The 
concern is to make the string more likely to be unique.

In the interest of avoiding confusion and focusing the questions:

* A parameter for VRFY/EXPN was specified in RFC 5336, so the
availability of that parameter is not an proposed addition here.


	There is, IMO, a problem with both the 5336 and 5336bis
	text, which is that it is not clear whether the client
	is required to supply the parameter if the string
	argument contains characters outside the ASCII range.
	I think we are headed toward "yes", even though a test
	on that string is lots less complex than tests on
	message content as would be required for the MAIL
	command if no parameter is required there.

* Neither 5336 nor 5336bis-07 specify a parameter for the MAIL
command.  That issue is already on Joseph's list of questions.

Is that a correct summary?

That is interesting.  Although one can read the text of 5321
(and its predecessors back to 1425) to allow this because there
is no obvious and explicit prohibition, we have never before
allowed an extension parameter to be specified prior to its
being authorized by a matching <ehlo-keyword>.   You implicitly
referred to the assumed requirement in your earlier note when
you wrote:

> (There is also the requirement that an EAI client must not
> send UTF-8 data to a non-EAI server, but the proposed SMTP
> extension keyword solves that problem is the simple, usual
> way.)

So it seems to me that there is a choice:

	(1) Permit VRFY or EXPN with the keyword (and possibly
	with a command argument outside the ASCII range) only
	after EHLO and an EHLO response that authorizes EAI
	extensions.
	
	(2) Permit this keyword, and possibly other keywords, on
	VRFY and EXPN wherever they might occur, without the
	protection of the extension mechanism when they are used
	outside a mail session (i.e., before EHLO).

I don't see either of these as changing the state machine.  VRFY
and EXPN can still be issued without a mail session and still
don't change the state of the mail session if they are issued
inside one.   The difference is where the parameter is permitted
and whether we are redesigning the commands themselves.

As someone (Ned?) noted earlier, unlike MAIL and RCPT, there is
no template syntax for parameters in 5321 (or 1425) for VRFY or
EXPN.  Some procedural complications aside (note that, if there
is a problem with how and where parameters are added to VRFY and
EXPN, the problem was committed in RFC 5336 -- it is not new
here), we can certainly add those parameters and invoke the
general extension model, as long as the parameterized versions
of the commands occur only after a mail session is established
with the appropriate ESMTP keyword response.  

The other possibility is to redefine VRFY and EXPN entirely, and
do so outside the bounds of the extension mechanism.  The
redefinition would permitting the Unicode-enabling keyword at
any time the command is permitted, without any expectation of
getting server permission first.  In principle, that is a pretty
big step with some risk of confusion by previously too-robust
servers.  In practice, maybe not.

Apologies.  I thought I had read the relevant, previous messages adequately, but 
had not.  I think I've remedied that oversight.  I also thought that what I 
meant was straightforward, but that wasn't true either.

The discussion thread about a new command versus restricted use of the existing 
command -- where the restriction is to require EHLO first -- looks reasonable to 
me, as does its conclusion.

Hence, I think this wg should settle on a parameter on the existing query 
commands, with a restriction that the parameters must not be used unless an EHLO 
has signaled server support for them.

Considering new commands might be interesting, but as noted goes beyond the 
scope of this working group.

Almost.  However it is reasonable to supply the VRFY/EXPN parameter when the 
string argument contains characters INSIDE the ASCII range, also.

I'll repeat that the working group is showing a tendency to use phrases like 
"outside the ASCII range" or "non-ASCII" as synonyms for Unicode or UTF-8.  Yet 
ASCII is also part of Unicode and the UTF-8 encoding of it.

There are some very specific cases in which it is essential to refer to the 
specific subset UTF-8 characters that are above x07F but I believe these cases 
are far fewer than occur in the working group.

In the example, here, there is no reason to prohibit use of the parameter, even 
when the string argument is "ASCII".  For one thing, ASCII is part of Unicode.

For another, it signals that the client can accept responses containing UTF-8. 
Such responses might, of course, occur for string arguments that are all-ASCII.

I suspect everyone in the working group already understands these points.  So my 
reason for flagging the issue is that this is an issue that is easily confused 
and the working group needs to be particularly careful in the way it discusses 
and documents it.

Having gone back and looked at the relevant bits of the drafts and of
RFC 5321, I agree.

When I suggested the STARTEAI command I was under the mistaken impression
that VRFY and EXPN allowed arbitrary text after the command, which would
have made whatever the parameter is retroactively a reserved word.  But
on rereading, I see that they take an argument which is one possibly
quoted string, so the parameter doesn't collide with anything.

We definitely need a two-way handshake so both ends of a connection
know that they're speaking EAI, and this seems the least complicated
way to do it.

As far as whether to allow the parameter on EXPN and VRFY before EHLO,
I realize that it changes the state machine to require EHLO first, but
I wouldn't want to make assumptions about what a non-EAI server might
do with a parameter it wasn't coded to handle.

R's,
John

That is what I said, I think.   I agree with you that it is
reasonable.  Whether it is necessary or not is, IMO, an
unresolved question although I'm personally strongly leaning in
the direction of permitting the parameter always and requiring
if either the string argument to the comment contains Unicode
characters outside the ASCII range (see below) or if such
characters are permitted on replies.

Careful, please.   I agree with you, at least in retrospect,
that "non-ASCII" is sloppy terminology and that we should get
rid of it even though I suggest that the meaning is clear to
almost every person on earth who works regularly with Unicode or
internationalization more generally.

However, especially since the EAI specs are, I think, already
quite clear that no CCS other than Unicode is permitted on the
wire, nor is any encoding of Unicode other than UTF-8, "outside
the ASCII range" or "outside the ASCII repertoire" are
completely and very precisely well-defined and, for all
practical purposes, synonymous.  The difference between the two
is only relevant if a constraint to Unicode (with or without a
UTF-8 encoding requirement) has not already been specified:
"ASCII repertoire" is still well-defined but "ASCII range" might
not so well-defined on another code space (although, in
practice, unless one is using either a very old CCS (e.g., BCD)
or a non-ISO CCS like EBDCIC, "ASCII range" is still
well-defined.   The only way to be more precise about what is
intended would be to say something like "Unicode code points
outside the range U+0000 through U+007F inclusive", but, in
addition to being pedantic, that is actually less clear about
what is intended than terminology based on ASCII, at least to
the less-sophisticated reader.

Maybe I still don't understand the point you are trying to make,
but, as you would be the first to point out in other contexts,
there is an installed base out there and the commands and
headers of that installed base are defined entirely in terms of
"ASCII characters".  Exceptions arise for message content: you
will recall that one of the, if not the, primary original goal
for what became MIME was internationalization of textual
content.  It is also worth noting that MIME "charset" parameters
deliberately and explicitly conflate coded character sets with
their encodings.  We claimed for many years that was a strength
to reduce confusion so, while I agree with you that it may be
time to untangle the two, relative to IETF precedents in the
email area, we are swimming upstream (together).   Faulting the
EAI WG and is document for creating this situation is, IMO, a
little bit unreasonable.

More broadly and again unless I misunderstand, I think you are
contradicting your own arguments.

Because of that installed base, the WG has been extremely
careful to avoid requiring EAI behavior or parameters when
whatever both client and server are intending to do is strictly
conformant with 5321/5322.  There are some tricky balances there
and we may not have gotten them right.   But it seems to me
that, if someone sends, e.g., VRFY using exactly the syntax
specified by 5321 and its predecessors, they should be able to
expect to get back exactly what 5321 specifies... and that is
NVT ASCII in and NVT ASCII out.  Similarly, _especially_ if we
provide a parameter to the MAIL command to indicate that EAI
features are needed, it may be ok for a client to supply that
parameter and send NVT ASCII only, but, if the client sends NVT
ASCII without a parameter, both client and server should expect
to behave exactly as 5321 (and any other extensions) specify.

Another example of this is message/rfc822.  It is clearly
specified (Section 5.2.2 of RFC 2045 and probably elsewhere) as
supporting all-ASCII headers in the embedded messages.  It has
no provision for a charset parameter or other indication that
headers in something other than ASCII are being transmitted.
Rejection of the idea of message/global is a threat to the
installed base because it would force changing the semantics of
a well-defined and well-established concept (and
content-type)... unless, of course, one is willing to say that
no EAI-conformant message that does not conform to the
restrictions of 2046 (e.g., one that contains characters outside
the ASCII repertoire in UTF-8 encoding rather than RFC 2047
("encoded word") encoding) may ever be encapsulated for
forwarding or other purposes.

Sure.  There is probably no reason to prohibit it and no reason
why an EAI-compliant shouldn't include it, other than giving the
server a little bit more information... _unless_ the client is
sending ASCII and unable to accept a reply that contains
anything but ASCII.

I distinctly remember MTAs that, because various lookup systems
were required that were not used elsewhere in their systems,
branched off into completely separate code modules if VRFY or
EXPN were received, pushing down or otherwise remembering
session state if EHLO had been received first.    I don't know
if such systems are still in active use but, if they are, one
could easily imagine a different implementation schedule for
VRFY/EXPN than for actual message transmission.   I assume we
would not want to delay deployment of i18n mail for such an
implementation until VRFY/EXPN caught up, especially for vendors
whose customer experience was that no one enabled either
operationally anyway.

And that was the case where 5336 (and the current text of
5336bis) absolutely require the parameter.  So I don't know who
you think you have to persuade.

No disagreement there.

Yes.  The only issues are two bits of flexibility that occur in
practice (but violate 5321):

	(1) In 821, the string argument to VRFY or EXPN could
	contain blanks and other odd characters as long as they
	were preceded by backslash (no surrounding double quotes
	required).   It is possible that code to send such
	strings is around somewhere; whether or not we should
	allow for them is a judgment call.
	
	(2) In part because of the confusion created by that odd
	quoting convention in 821, there are, or used to be,
	servers in the wild that would behave in exactly the way
	you were concerned about, i.e., treat the entire command
	line following VRFY or EXPN as the argument, effectively
	quoting the entire argument as a string if it wasn't
	quoted already.  

My personal view right now is that we can probably safely ignore
both of those cases.  But we should be explicit that is what we
are doing, e.g., by making an explicit requirement that any
server that advertises UTF8SMTPbis takes responsibility for a
5321-conforming interpretation of VRFY and EXPN arguments.

Absolutely, yes.

uent

Yes.  In order to use EAI-enabled VRFY of EXPN, the client MUST do
EHLO first and check for the server support.  If the client wants to
use VRFY or EXPN without EHLO, it's limited to the old, pre-EAI
version (and it will not get Unicode/UTF-8-encoded responses).

Yes.

No.

RFCs aren't updated in place; if the references are to the RFCs by
number, the references will be stable.  If an RFC is updated or
obsoleted, that will be noted, but the referenced text in the original
RFC will still be there and will not have changed.

Of course, it might be a good idea to update our documents if/when an
RFC they reference has an updating or obsoleting RFC... but that's a
different issue.

> (4) Should the WG replace references to "ASCII", "non-ASCII", and "UTF-8"=
 with new
> or different term s that precisely and accurately identify what is intend=
ed?

I've answered this in my other note: I think we need to define the
terms we use, and then use them rigorously.  And we need to make it
clear when we're referring to "characters" in the abstract sense, and
when we're referring to encoded characters.

> (5) Should the WG add additional text for gateways?

I don't think that's in scope, so I'd say no.  Follow-on informative
advice to gateways might be appropriate, as a separate effort.

> (6) Should the WG add additional text for ticket systems that interface w=
ith email

I think my answer to that is the same as for (5).  I wouldn't mind
brief text -- a paragraph, maybe -- that points out things to watch
for, but any significant treatment should be saved for follow-on
informative advice.

I'm undecided about this one.

The documents should introduce new ABNF elements for the new strings,
and update ABNF rules from the other documents.  Yes, we should use
references to the other documents for the original rules.

My understanding from John and Joseph, and from the Subject of this 
thread, was that Joseph's list of questions was put on the mailing list 
just to check whether they are the right questions to later (when?) ask 
one-by-one. Now I see that some people are just replying to the 
questions here. Can we please do either one or the other?

Regards,   Martin.

Hi,

I am looking for the WG to confirm that we have the right questions to =
ask, and of course I am looking for suggestions (including new question) =
or questions to the question-set.  So please hold your answer for little =
longer, the question will post to the mailing list one by one.  If you =
answered any question, I take it that the question is a good question =
from your perspective.  If you like all questions and see no change, =
please say so in replying this thread too.

I would rather have the questions reviewed and confirmed quick by the WG =
rather than based on time.  But I don't see that we need lots of time to =
confirm the questions (I will let the discussion flow to prove my =
estimation wrong, and will adjust accordingly).  I will make summary on =
discussions coming before Wednesday Jan 12, 8pm Pacific Time.  I will =
update the question list in between to help speed up the discussion.

Thanks
Jospeh

I think the questions you listed are the right ones, so please go ahead 
with putting them before the WG.

There is always the possibility that we find an additional question or 
two, but that shouldn't hold us up starting with the questions we 
already have.

Regards,   Martin.

So please hold your answer for little longer, the question will post to the mailing list one by one.  If you answered any question, I take it that the question is a good question from your perspective.  If you like all questions and see no change, please say so in replying this thread too.

But I don't see that we need lots of time to confirm the questions (I will let the discussion flow to prove my estimation wrong, and will adjust accordingly).  I will make summary on discussions coming before Wednesday Jan 12, 8pm Pacific Time.  I will update the question list in between to help speed up the discussion.

Exactly right, but see below.

> can we include the  control characters in ASCII?

I'm not certain I understand exactly what question you are
asking, but let me try to give some perspective on the issue
and, in the process, suggest an additional question for Joseph's
list.  I assume that, if we can figure out what we really want
to do, we can get the syntax sorted out, but there may still be
uncertainty about what we want to do.

Personal opinion only...

When RFC 821 and its predecessors were first defined, the rule
was, effectively, "any character in the ASCII repertoire" (with
a quoting convention for some of them that we now see as
undesirable).  The ASCII repertoire consists, in terminology
used by Unicode but introduced in later versions of the ASCII
standard and its international counterpart (ISO/IEC 646), of

   The C0 control set
   Space
   ASCII graphics
   DEL

"ASCII graphics" can be further subdivided, but the divisions
don't appear to be relevant to EAI.

In today's word (perhaps unlike that of 25 or 30 years ago),
there seems to be no advantage and some risks from including
control characters in email local-parts and other data elements.
We changed the quoting convention to eliminate some of the
problems and evolved the preferred (not requiring quotes) form
of local parts to depend on "atext", which is restricted to
ASCII graphics (printable characters).  Largely because of
concerns about the installed base and incompatible changes, we
have never deprecated use of non-graphic characters entirely, or
even removed the control characters (some of them potentially
quite dangerous) from what may appear in quoted strings.

Moving to Unicode does not only expand the repertoire of graphic
characters, it adds a second group of explicit control
characters (the C1 set), plus a lot of characters that are used
only for annotations of particular sorts.    Example of the
latter include such things as the Language Tag Characters that
have been deprecated by the Unicode consortium and by the IETF
in RFC 6082.

The question is what should be permitted in what I'm going to
refer to in the balance of this note as "EAI-address-characters"
(a repertoire, not an encoding) to avoid any confusion with
Unicode, UTF-8, ASCII, and other terms.

If we make it "all of Unicode", then we include both the ASCII
characters that have proven problematic and increase the risk of
mischief and mapping errors by including the C1 controls as well
as tagging, annotation, and other characters.

The WG spent some time on this and concluded that we needed to
prohibit use of both the C0 and C1 controls, the latter to avoid
adding characters with direct security consequences and no known
benefits and the former for consistency and to reduce risks that
become more severe in the context of the expanded repertoire.
So we now have (completely new terminology for clarity -- please
do not copy into document) and informally because it may make
the intent more clear:

821-address-characters = Any ASCII character, whole
	range.  Some require quoting.
	
EAI-address-characters = Any Unicode character, whole
	range, _except_ C0 and C1 controls.  Some require
	quoting.

So the first answer is that, while the Unicode repertoire is a
proper superset of the ASCII one and the set of octets that can
appear in UTF-8 encoding is a proper superset of the set of
octets that can appear in NVT encoding (NVT is always ASCII),
the set of characters allowed in EAI-address-characters is _not_
a proper superset of the set of characters allowed in
821-address-characters because the C0 set is excluded.

Now, to my personal taste and based on a number of things I
think we have learned since the EAI work got started, we would
be a lot better off further reducing the list of valid
EAI-address-characters.  It would probably be unreasonable to go
all the way to the strict letters (and characters used to
construct them), digits, and hyphen rule used by IDNA, but we
would almost certainly be better off if we confined ourselves to
graphic ("printing" in the vocabulary of 5322) characters and
perhaps a subset of those.  However the WG has _not_ discussed
such restrictions, so the intent is that EAI-address-characters
contain those described above.

And, because of the exclusion of C0 (as well as C1) controls,
all of the "[US-]ASCII is a subset of UTF-8" discussions are not
really relevant, quite independent of Dave's concern that the
statement itself represents a muddling of terminology, at least
unless one assumes that both have their meaning as "charset"
names, not a repertoire name and an encoding name.

I think this is too open. There is the potential to spend endless time 
discussing this and that (kind of) character/code point. I'd reword it as:

Do we need to tweak the definition of uAtom, and if yes, how?

FWIW, I'd rather use a parameter name that matches (is identical
to) whatever we turn UTF8SMTPbis into.  Just one for all three
commands, but "UTF8" causes all of the problems that Dave,
JianKang, myself, and others have been discussing -- confusion
of encoding with character repertoire, character repertoire that
doesn't exactly match what the keyword seems to mean, etc.
Since we don't need more than one parameter name, having it
match the EHLO reply value lowers the possibility of confusion
and simplifies things for everyone, IMO.

+1

(And using UTF8 does correctly assert that the option covers Unicode encoded in 
UTF8...)

Repeating the question listed, with the new one on uAtom, and rephrase =
issue (2).

-------------------
(1)
Should the WG add parameter on MAIL FROM to start EAI transaction and =
avoid the need for deep inspection?

(2)=20
Should the new parameter to VRFY/EXPN only be permitted after the SMTP =
client issued EHLO command and saw a response that included UTF8SMTPbis?

(3)
Should the WG remove repetition of normative text from other documents =
to the extent possible.  Incorporate by reference and, where necessary, =
note explicitly that tutorial / context-providing references are not =
normative.

If the WG remove the repetition of normative text, will it make the =
draft hard to read?  If not, are there any text in current draft may =
result in inaccurate or confusing information because by update of other =
RFCs?

(4)
Should the WG replace references to "ASCII", "non-ASCII", and "UTF-8" =
with new or different term s that precisely and accurately identify what =
is intended?

(5)
Should the WG add additional text for gateways?

(6)
Should the WG add additional text for ticket systems that interface with =
email address, internationalized string, log, and traces?

(7)
Should the WG keep the decision about nested encodings and the use of =
message/global as described in RFC5336 and RFC5336bis? Or is a different =
model needed?

(8)
Once errors are corrected, is the current metalanguage model (including =
the 'u' prefixes) acceptable?  If not, should only those rules be =
included that are modified from RFC 5321 or 5322 respectively, forcing =
the user to reference the original documents for parts of substantially =
every rule?

(9)=20
Do we need to tweak the definition of uAtom, and if yes, how?

------

Some observation from early consensus:
- Issues (5) and (6) were perceived towards editing matters or not in =
scope.  If no opposition observed, it's likely I will remove them from =
consensus discussion.

- I received suggestions to move the second part of issue (3) into later =
discussion, which I personally think is reasonable.

Suggestions welcomed.


Just friendly reminder that this is to confirm the question before =
getting into it.  I (even lack of reply) take note to opinions expressed =
so far and will discuss them afterwards.

Regards,
Joseph

I realize the discussion of the actual command is jumping the gun, but I'd =
prefer UTF8, or, distant secondly EAI as a "simple" tag for EAI mail.

Starting with RFCs 821/822 there has been a consistent pattern for publishing SMTP standards as paired documents, where the first is the SMTP protocol and the second is the Internet message format. This was continued until 5321/5322.

The EAI Experimental drafts were published in the reverse order, with 5335 being Email Headers and 5336 SMTP Extensions.

Can we reserve RFC numbers in advance to be consistent with the past and also get a 21/22 pair.
5336bis -> 6321 SMTP Extension for Internationalized Email Address
5335bis -> 6322 Internationalized Email Headers

Editorial notes:
1) The title on 5336bis should be corrected to:
      SMTP Extensions for Internationalized Email Addresses
2) 5335bis is not only email headers, it includes specifications for message bodies. The    title should be changed to conform to the previous x22 documents:
      Internet Message Format for Internationalized Email Addresses

And incorrectly implies that all of Unicode is permitted as long
as it is encoded in UTF-8.

If we want precision in the use of terms like "UTF-8" (which, by
the way, is the correct spelling), then we should be precise.

Choosing labels is often a matter of trade-offs.  There is always a danger of 
the classic perfect being the enemy of the good.

Given that established IETF use of "ASCII" does not typically mean pure ASCII 
and given that the EAI working group and most other IETF use of UTF-8 means 
UTF-8 adapted for use within IETF protocols, the lack of "precision" that you 
cite does not seem to cause all that much trouble.

In fact, there appears to be a similar comfort with approximation within the 
Unicode community.  After the group's previous exchange about the term "Latin" 
and your concerns:

On 1/4/2011 11:09 AM, John C Klensin wrote:

I happened to find:

    <http://www.unicode.org/charts/>

Which interestingly has an entry under "European Scripts" labeled "Latin".  That 
entry points to:

    <http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0000.pdf>

which is the very C0 Controls and Basic Latin table we want to reference.  (The 
Label on the chart 'home' page does have the sub-entries you cite, but the label 
itself points only to this one page.

In other words, the Unicode Consortium is comfortable calling the table "Latin".


In any event, since you object to the offered label, presumably you have a 
better term to suggest, so that the working group can make some progress?

I'm inclined to appeal to minimization of keywords and to
precedent.  The former is important because if we end up with a
situation in the future in which there are lots of parameters
(there are very few today), being able to associate the
parameter name with the relevant extension keyword may actually
be more important than some intuition about meaning.

If you examine the registered extension list and corresponding
EHLO keywords in the mail parameter registry
(http://www.iana.org/assignments/mail-parameters) and then track
down the extension that have corresponding keywords on the MAIL
or RCPT commands, it appears that our general practice has been
the one that I consider most obvious: unless multiple parameter
keywords are needed on a given command to convey distinct
meaning, we simply reuse the EHLO reply keyword name as the
parameter.  

In other words, we set the value for the VRFY/EXPN and MAIL
command parameters to UTF8SMTPbis (whatever that turns out to
be).

Another way to make progress involves actually reading each
other's postings -- this idea has not only been mentioned
before, but more than one person has expressed support for it.

Dave, you raised this issue in commenting on the use of ASCII
and non-ASCII, which, for better or worse, is also extremely
established IETF usage.  I've agreed with you that the usage is
worth changing, but, if we are going to do it, let's actually do
it, not complain first and then suggest making the same errors
again.

Actually, the comfort within the Unicode community is that, as
the Standard, and text that describes it, has evolved
contradictions have crept in.  Virtually everyone who have been
working with i18n issues for any length of time is aware of
them, interprets intended meaning from context, and moves on.
This is one such example, where "Latin" is used to refer to the
ASCII code space, and the letters within that code space, and
the graphic (printing) characters within that code space, and
the whole collection of Latin-derived characters and marks that
are associated with the script.   Part, but only part, of the
problem is that it is common to use "Latin" to refer to "Latin
characters" and "Latin script" (without the qualifications) but
sometimes referring to somewhat different repertoires.

There are really only two ways around these problems:

	(1) Use the somewhat-imprecise terminology, accept the
	ambiguity and occasional need to deduce what is
	intended, and promise never to complain about
	low-precision or ambiguous terminology.
	
	(2) Learn to be very precise.  Because the list of
	characters associated with a script or such properties
	as "letter", "digit", "format character", etc. (see RFC
	3536 for some of this) even defining those in terms of
	blocks or ranges is imprecise unless the particular
	version of Unicode is specified.  Consequently, being
	precise typically requires either inventing completely
	new terms or building definitions based on stable
	Unicode properties, not blocks or names for groups of
	code points.   FWIW, IDNA2008 ended up needing to do
	both, as Andrew pointed out some time ago.

The WG effectively selected the first approach for its
Experimental documents and received no negative comments about
it during Last Call on those documents.   Your review of 5336bis
caught a few actual errors --which I, at least, appreciate-- but
raised this more general issue of precision as a serious
problem.  My inclination is that we are better off fixing that
problem.  But I think that, if we are going to do that, being
consistent about it has some merit.

I can talk to the RFC Editor about reserving the suggested RFC numbers, 
if that is what the WG wants.

Why not 6336 and 6335?

But I think that reserving RFC numbers is quite exceptional and possibly not 
typically allowed.

Indeed.  And it is much easier to have those discussions when
one has a clear understanding / good prediction of when the
documents will be finished.

FWIW, I do agree with Ernie that having them in the order SMTP
(as in 821, 2821, 5321) and then headers (822, 2822, 5322) would
probably be wiser.

I don't disagree with changing the ordering, but I would point out that the
x21/x22 series are complete replacements whereas the EAI docs are
extensions.

Of course.  It seems to me that might be an argument against
trying to make the EAI documents 6321/6322 or equivalent.  But
the order should be independent of that.  Right now, knowing
that SMTP is before Headers in the base document but the order
is reversed in the EAI ones has already caused some confusion
and mistakes to be made.  Nothing serious, but it seems like a
problem best avoided, with no particular downside.

Issue #6: current metalanguage model acceptable?

http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/eai/trac/ticket/6

Description=20
---------------

Once errors are corrected, is the current metalanguage model (including =
the 'u' prefixes) acceptable? If not, should only those rules be =
included that are modified from RFC 5321 or 5322 respectively, forcing =
the user to reference the original documents for parts of substantially =
every rule?

---------------

Please use this thread or the issue tracker for discussion. The end date =
of discussion is Tuesday, Jan 25 - 9pm Pacific Time and conclusion will =
be drawn afterwards.   =20


Best,

I am happy with these terms and think the intent is understandable in conte=
xt.  I don't object if someone has another idea, but I don't want deciding =
on these to slow down the working group.

If it's going to be changed and doesn't delay the process, I think it'd be =
easier to just change the modified rules, and refer to the original documen=
ts.  (Note that this allows revisions to the original documents to work, an=
d avoids confusing in case of an error).  However I'd prefer whichever path=

IMO they aren't necessary as the path between the sender and the recipient =
would necessarily be EAI-aware, so you shouldn't have trouble between 7 bit=
 and 8 bit environments.  I'd be happy either way.

Yes, it should.

I would prefer it to be a parameter that takes a value, and that the value =
indicates legacy behavior or EAI behavior, because I believe that makes any=
 potential future extensions to this standard easier to integrate.  I would=
 prefer that the value be descriptive of the type of character encoding (AS=
CII/UTF-8, or whatever terminology is deemed appropriate) rather than a sim=
ple binary value, again because I believe that makes any potential future e=
xtensions to this standard easier to integrate.  If it had such a value, th=
en a parameter name such as HEADERENCODING might be a good name.

But if there was a consensus for this parameter to have a binary value, or =
no value at all, I would not object.

Yes, it should only be permitted after the SMTP client issued an EHLO comma=
nd and saw a response that included UTF8SMTPbis.

In general, I am leery of trying to establish a parameter extensibility mod=
el to any of the SMTP commands in this RFC.  It seems like the kind of thin=
g that should happen in the core SMTP RFC (such as RFC 5321) while the actu=
al extensions that take advantage of that extensibility model would be defi=
ned in separate RFCs like this EAI RFC.  So in the future, if someone wante=
d to define another parameter extension for these SMTP commands, but not im=
ply EAI support, they may have to reference the very specific portions of t=
he EAI RFC that deals with parameter extensibility while explicitly ignorin=
g everything else.

That said, we are where we are and we need to be able to move forward.  I t=
hink both the server and client MUST explicitly indicate that they want the=
 EAI behavior for these commands, and that the client MUST NOT include para=
meters on these commands if the server has not indicated support for them. =
 The EHLO advertisements from the server and a parameter on the commands fr=
om the client seem quite reasonable to achieve this.  I have no reason to b=
elieve this change will be a significant burden on implementers.

It might be useful to write a specific section that defines an extensibilit=
y model for VRFY/EXPN for easier external reference by other RFCs, and then=
 a section that defines the explicit parameter that we'll be introducing fo=
r EAI support.

Character encodings are, in short, evil, and should be avoided.  Most of th=
e other encodings have variants, ambiguities and other inconsistencies that=
 make them inappropriate for reliable use.  So we really shouldn't have thi=
s be extensible in that direction.  It's unclear to me how other extensions=
 might interact with, or extend EAI, but it seems that a general extensibil=
ity is outside of the purview of this WG.

Yes, it should.

I would prefer it to be a parameter that takes a value, and that the value =
indicates legacy behavior or EAI behavior, because I believe that makes any=
 potential future extensions to this standard easier to integrate.  I would=
 prefer that the value be descriptive of the type of character encoding (AS=
CII/UTF-8, or whatever terminology is deemed appropriate) rather than a sim=
ple binary value, again because I believe that makes any potential future e=
xtensions to this standard easier to integrate.  If it had such a value, th=
en a parameter name such as HEADERENCODING might be a good name.

But if there was a consensus for this parameter to have a binary value, or =
no value at all, I would not object.

If there is to be a parameter on the MAIL FROM: command, it seems that it
may have overloaded meanings:

  1 - The message immediately following has non-ASCII

  2 - The client is able to accept non-ASCII in responses to any commands
      related to the immediately following message

This might entail a syntax like:

  UTF8=WITHIN  or  UTF8=ACCEPTED

Where WITHIN implies ACCEPTED.

Yes, keep message/global and move on.

With one exception, I do not see any way to avoid this and still
be able to forward EAI-style messages with addresses in header
fields to EAI-unaware environments.  Even then, message/rfc822
clearly does not permit headers containing characters outside
the ASCII repertoire that are expressed using a coding that
requires octets with the high bit on.

The exception would be some "downgrade" encoding for that
purpose that would expand the scope in which encoded words can
be used to include addresses and perhaps additional header
fields and then used some downgrade procedure to make valid
message/rfc822 body parts from arbitrary messages that depended
on EAI facilities.  

Such a proposal would also take us backwards, away from the goal
of simply using UTF-8 where appropriate and into the domain of
yet more long-term use of IETF-protocol-specific encodings.

In any event, the  WG does not have such a proposal in front of
it; I believe that writing one that gets all of the cases right
would require some skill and considerable work by the WG and I
just do not see avoiding message/global as important enough to
justify the delay the effort to generate such a proposal would
cause.. to say nothing of the disadvantages of inventing and
deploying yet another kludge.

A message can be in UTF-8 and have only ASCII.

I suppose that's hypothetically true, but I do not ever want to meet a
mail client that sends a UTF-8 message but can't accept UTF-8 in the
responses.  For EAI, you're either on the bus or you aren't.

Add my +1 to having one parameter with no options.

I'd rather not step into that tarpit.  When the followon to 5321 is
written, I have no doubt that whoever is writing it will be aware of
what EAI did, and can consider whether VRFY and EXPN need an
extensibility model.  Since this is, as far as I can tell, the first
extension in 30 years, probably not.

If over-eager gateways want to downgrade some subset of message/global
message parts to message/rfc822, they can do it without our help.

And that should be a conformance issue elsewhere in the text.
More generally, the WG has so far consistently taken the
position that one is either EAI-conforming (i.e., fully
i18n-email-capable) or not.  I think that is consistent with the
view John expresses above.

Procedurally, that would be a new feature and would presumably
cause a reset to Proposed, It would change the conformance model
so one might be able to get away with it with enough
procedural-lawyering, but I'm not convinced that it would be
desirable.   I think the right advice about this, for other than
the narrow EAI case, is the same as the advice for all other
general extension models for SMTP -- develop a separate I-D to
put the extension through at Proposed, diligently pursue
implementation reports etc., to get that spec to Draft Standard,
and then, timing permitting, argue for including the feature in
5321bis when it is prepared for Full Standard.

For the record, I am neither volunteering to do that work nor
recommending that anyone else do so -- just pointing out what
would be procedurally correct if someone were so inclined.

So?  Assuming you are not just being pedantic for its own sake,
what does that suggest to you?   It was part of the WG's
original reasoning for _not_ needing this parameter -- the
server had asserted that it was UTF-8 capable (or whatever one
wants to call it), so the client could send UTF-8 (including
just the ASCII subset) without additional fussing.  If the
server actually needs to know whether the extended features are
being used, without having to parse the message, then it seems
to me that the client should tell the server what it actually
knows about addresses and main and MIME headers, not assert that
maybe it is sending characters outside the ASCII,
5321/5322-conforming, range and maybe it isn't.   

If all that parameter means is that the client is sending UTF-8
that might happen to be nothing but ASCII, then, if the server
cares whether what it is getting requires extended capabilities,
it needs to parse the message and its headers.  And that is
exactly what those who took the strongest positions in favor of
this parameter seemed to me to want to avoid.

(Thanks for that assumption and, of course, for expressing it.)

As I have been repeatedly noting, this group has fallen into the pattern of 
using "non-ascii" as a synonym for UTF-8.

It's not a synonym.

An example of the error this inaccurate usage causes is to assume that someone 
sending an ASCII message is not working within a UTF-8 environment.

The problem was the step after that:  The committee felt that the server could 
determine whether an incoming message was in UTF-8 by whether it contained only 
ASCII characters.  Hence it did not require an explicit label.

This was an erroneous assumption and I believe it flowed directly from this 
mis-use of "non-ascii".

If the message is in UTF-8, it does not matter whether it happens to have 
characters only inside, only outside, or inside and outside the ASCII range.

What matters is that the message and the participants have declared that they 
are working within the set of specifications defined for UTF-8 messages.

That's certainly right. But NOT what I was concerned with.

How does an EAI compliant client express that fact when sending a message
that is ASCII only? If it marks the message as UTF8, it may limit it's
propagation unnecessarily, and if the client *doesn't* mark it as UTF8, it
may miss out on some useful responses from the server.

Case 0 - Non-EAI client; Message Header MUST be ASCII only

Case 1 - EAI client; Message Header is ASCII only

Case 2 - EAI client; Message Header is *not* ASCII only

Aha.  I finally think I understand what you are talking about.
I still think you are wrong, but starting to understand where we
disagree is progress.

First, nothing in the EAI work, with  or without parameters,
requires that the _message_, and its various body parts, be in
UTF-8.  That is why we have content-types and, for some text/
types, charset parameters (which deliberately and explicitly
specify both a CCS and a particular encoding rather than a cell
in a matrix).  While some of us believe that gradually retiring
everything on the wire other than Unicode-in-UTF-8 (even its
ASCII subset) would be a good idea, making that a requirement
would be well outside EAI's scope as well as implausible for the
near future.

So we are talking only about addresses and [other] header
information, both the main set of header fields and any MIME
body part headers, not "messages" or "message content".

Now prior to the EAI work, the technical term for any message
containing non-ASCII (and I do mean "non-ASCII", not just UTF-8
Unicode outside that range) characters was "seriously
non-conforming" (or perhaps "invalid" or "broken").   If there
are instances of that particular bad behavior around, addressing
them is outside EAI's scope (at best).

So a server that advertises availability of the EAI extension is
asserting that it can accept headers and addresses in UTF-8
(yes, including nothing-but-ASCII).  It is not asserting that it
can handle, e.g., ISO 8859-5 or BIG5 in headers or addresses.

If your reasoning is correct, the client really doesn't need to
assert anything as long as what it sends is UTF-8 (which might
be nothing but ASCII) in its address and header material.  I.e., 

	5321/5322-conforming: headers and addresses are
	ASCII-only
	EAI-conforming: headers and addresses are UTF-8 only
	(and might be all-ASCII because that is a proper
	subset).  

But then we don't need this parameter except for one case that
the WG has explicitly tried to exclude.  That case arises if the
server gets to advertise both UTF8SMTP and LowerSlobbovianSMTP.
If that is permitted -- if we are going to accept and tolerate a
whole collection of CCSs and encodings from which a client might
choose, then the client would properly have to assert that its
headers and addresses are Unicode-in-UTF-8, and not "something
else".  A better solution is to avoid specifying and
standardizing such extensions.

Even if that were the concern, it would be far better to simply
have a provision that a given server can advertise at most one
address and/or header CCS or encoding extension at a time.
Anything else leads to more interesting edge cases and
complexities than could possibly be wise.

The much stronger argument for a parameter, IMO, is for a client
to assert that it is actually using some EAI facilities and
hence that any subsequent relay must make sure that those
facilities are available (and can make the determination that it
needs to require them without parsing all headers in the message
to determine if non-ASCII (sic, but think "octets with the high
bit on") characters are present.

THat's not what the proposed parameter means. The proposed parameter is an
indicator that the following *transaction* may contain utf-8 in several new
places. The new places include not only header fields but also envelope
parameters.

And since it is pretty common - and in some cases essential - to be able  to
return some of that now-potentially-utf-8 material in error responses, this
needs to extend to server responses as well.

>   2 - The client is able to accept non-ASCII in responses to any commands

You're making this sound like it is an independent thing. It's not. It's  a
direct consequence of sending utf-8 material (and addresses in particular).

Indeed, it is easy to envision a different sort of extension that lets the
language of SMTP responses be negotiated. This would almost certainly also
require suport for utf-8 in SMTP server responses. But it isn't what we're
considering here.

> This might entail a syntax like:

>   UTF8=WITHIN  or  UTF8=ACCEPTED

> Where WITHIN implies ACCEPTED.

Unless you can come up with an argument for why it would be useful to allow one
of these but not the other - and without getting into capabilities that go
beyond what this WG is chartered to do, I see no point in having such a split.

This may be at the core of the discussion Dave and I are having,
except that it really isn't about UTF-8 except as a consequence.
If one has a parameter, the desired behavior is:

* No EAI facilities used or required: no parameter associated
with the extensions on MAIL.  That corresponds to your cases 0
and 1 and is the same whether the server advertises UTF8SMTPbis
or not.

* EAI facilities used or required: appropriate parameter is sent
with MAIL, VRFY, or EXPN as needed.  Server actually doesn't
know much more about the handling of the commands or message
(other than that it can return replies that would have have
conformed to 5321) but it knows that, if it relays the message,
it has to require those facilities downstream without having to
parse anything.

It doesn't.  I believe that the consensus is that all the efforts at 
selective downgrading turned out to be more trouble than they were worth.

If you think that there will be enough pure ASCII mail sent to non-ASCII 
addresses that then forward to ASCII addresses to merit special case code 
to recognize and downgrade and do some kludge to fix any non-ASCII stuff 
in Received: headers, you still have the option of Deep Message 
Inspection.

Personally, I think that's not sufficiently likely to be worry about.

Hi Shawn -

While I don't think I have the same zeal about character encodings, I appre=
ciate your concern.  I don't think the working group should spend a signifi=
cant amount of time trying to think about how the standard might be extende=
d, but I still think it's valuable to acknowledge that it might happen for =
reasons that aren't obvious to us today.  And if we can design our paramete=
rs to be more friendly to potential future extensions with minimal cost and=
 no negative impact on implementing this standard, then I think it would be=
 wise for us to do so.  We don't need to concern ourselves with whether tho=
se future extensions are good ideas - that can be safely left to future wor=
king groups who wish to propose those extensions.

And as I said, while I would prefer the type of design I've described, the =
other proposals that have been given also meet the goal of this working gro=
up and I would have no objection to them.

- Troy Starr

I am concerned about the case where the client does NOT know that there is
an EAI facility needed, but THERE IS a need!

For example, a client (which is EAI compliant) is handed a message (say, by
SUBMISSION) which has no non-ASCII recipients or non-ASCII in its header.
The client contacts the MX server for one or more of the recipients and
begins a transaction with MAIL FROM: using *no* UTF8 parameter.

It then sends RCPT TO: commands until one of the recipients has a
forwarding address and the MX server would like to return a 551 reply
suggesting a <forward-path>. However, the <forward-path> is a non-ASCII
address and the MX server has no way to return this to the client since the
client must be presumed to be NON-EAI compliant due to the lack of a UTF8
parameter on the MAIL FROM: command.

This all presumes we are using the UTF8 parameter to both relieve the MX server
from Deep-Analysis as well as informing it of the capabilities of the
client.

OK, now I see what you're getting at. My problem with this is that in my
experience the use of the address correction facilities in RFC 5321 is quite
rare, bordering on nonexistent. I'd like to see some evidence that such
facilities are not just in some code somewhere, but in such active use that the
costs of complicating this proposal are worth the added benefit of supporting
this capability for non-ASCII responses.

The tradeoff here may seem to be similar to when we decide whether or not to
retain some obscure feature in some specification (like, say, all the obsolete
syntax in RFC 5322), but it really isn't. The difference is in fact rather
stark: Support costs versus deployment costs.

Most of the support costs for obscure existing are, in one way or another, sunk
costs, e.g., if you have code that supports source routes, you've already paid
the price of developing that code.

Deployment costs are another matter. These are mostly future costs and hence
have a direct impact on deployability - the more complex and costly this stuff
is to implement and operate, the less people are going to be willing to be
early adopters. Raise the cost too high, and this dog is not going to hunt. And
that more than anything is my goal here - I want this specification to  be as
simole and as easy to implement as possible, because otherwise I think this
group is going to be very surprised at just how little large parts of the world
care about having the ability to put utf-8 in addresses.

I think the avoidance of message inspection is vitally important, but let's not
forget this also facilities early rejection of messages on a per-recipient
basis as well.

Yes. To the extent possible, the parameter should be short.

My main concern was to raise this issue for completeness sake.

I defer to others with more recent operational and development experience
as to the importance of this special case.

Out of curiousity, because?   Remember that this parameter is
part of the SMTP envelope only -- users never see these things;
most users would be unable to see them if they wanted to and
knew how to look for them (it requires either looking inside an
MTA or intercepting MTA-MTA transactions).   I don't object to
"short", but am wondering why you think it is important.

IMO that's way more complex than is necessary.  Either the client understan=

If there is to be a parameter on the MAIL FROM: command, it seems that it
may have overloaded meanings:

  1 - The message immediately following has non-ASCII

  2 - The client is able to accept non-ASCII in responses to any commands
      related to the immediately following message

This might entail a syntax like:

  UTF8=3DWITHIN  or  UTF8=3DACCEPTED

Where WITHIN implies ACCEPTED.

IMO: An EAI compliant client shouldn't be sending "ASCII" mail, it should b=
e sending "UTF-8" mail (even if it only contains ASCII range characters).  =
Sure they're the same, but there's no reason the client, or the server, nee=
d to care because they're both EAI aware.

*IF* the recipient wants to forward the message, his end can worry about wh=
at to do with the encoding at that time.  And if the server wants to send i=
t on to a non-EAI server, then it can deal with it at that time.  Forcing t=
he client to parse and continue to support this information, forever, even =
after 99% of the servers support EAI, is a waste of effort.

A system of EAI aware servers shouldn't care what range of characters is en=
coded within a UTF-8 encoded mail.

That's certainly right. But NOT what I was concerned with.

How does an EAI compliant client express that fact when sending a message
that is ASCII only? If it marks the message as UTF8, it may limit it's
propagation unnecessarily, and if the client *doesn't* mark it as UTF8, it
may miss out on some useful responses from the server.

Case 0 - Non-EAI client; Message Header MUST be ASCII only

Case 1 - EAI client; Message Header is ASCII only

Case 2 - EAI client; Message Header is *not* ASCII only

Nothing requires UTF-8, but we certainly strongly suggest that EAI messages=
 are entirely UTF-8.  IMO you'd be a pretty ugly EAI implementation if that=
 wasn't your default.

First, nothing in the EAI work, with  or without parameters,
requires that the _message_, and its various body parts, be in
UTF-8.  That is why we have content-types and, for some text/
types, charset parameters (which deliberately and explicitly
specify both a CCS and a particular encoding rather than a cell
in a matrix).  While some of us believe that gradually retiring
everything on the wire other than Unicode-in-UTF-8 (even its
ASCII subset) would be a good idea, making that a requirement
would be well outside EAI's scope as well as implausible for the
near future.

g" EAI to another encoding is a non-starter.  Other extensions may be usefu=
l, but I don't see how adding EAI parameters helps as we cannot foresee the=
 direction of the extension, and it's out of the scope of the WG to (re)def=
ine extension methods.  I don't see needing EAI-specific extensions in the =
future, though I could be short-sighted.

I suppose if we had a "Human languages the user can read" extension to faci=
litate machine translation, or at least correct selection of response langu=
age, that could include "LANGUAGES: en, de, es", then perhaps there'd be an=
 international-related extension to the standard.  Even in that case, I don=
't see why it couldn't have it's own "LANG" extension with whatever syntax =
that extension needed.

Assuming we really screw up EAI and need to "fix" it, we always have the op=
tion of changing the tag to "UTF8V2" or something.

Hi Shawn -

While I don't think I have the same zeal about character encodings, I appre=
ciate your concern.  I don't think the working group should spend a signifi=
cant amount of time trying to think about how the standard might be extende=
d, but I still think it's valuable to acknowledge that it might happen for =
reasons that aren't obvious to us today.  And if we can design our paramete=
rs to be more friendly to potential future extensions with minimal cost and=
 no negative impact on implementing this standard, then I think it would be=
 wise for us to do so.  We don't need to concern ourselves with whether tho=
se future extensions are good ideas - that can be safely left to future wor=
king groups who wish to propose those extensions.

And as I said, while I would prefer the type of design I've described, the =
other proposals that have been given also meet the goal of this working gro=
up and I would have no objection to them.

Hmm.

It seems to me that we have another, more fundamental, issue
here.   I'm not trying to do a formal appraisal of consensus
(Joseph's problem), but it seems to me that among those who have
advocated a keyword (without counting, at least a majority so
far), there are two separate opinions about what it means:

	(1) A handshake announcement that the client is
	EAI-capable (see Shawn's note below as an example)
	
	(2) An announcement from the client to the server that
	the message actually requires (or at least probably
	requires) EAI capabilities.

FWIW, note that the _only_ reply text that require
EAI-capability are those to VRFY and EXPN and the "new address"
codes, which we have nearly, but not quite, deprecated in
broader Internet contexts (e.g., non-enterprise ones).  Those
three cases need to return addresses, nothing else does.
Inclusion of mailbox names in replies to MAIL, RCPT, or any
other command is not required or suggested in RFC 5321 and, at
least in my experience, is uncommon.

If we go with the "handshake" model, then there is no issue with
replies containing text not permitted by 5321 (i.e., text
containing Unicode characters with code points above U+007F,
encoded in UTF-8).  But a server that actually needs to know
whether a message requires EAI capabilities (e.g., to deliver it
to a message store with appropriate information for POP or IMAP
clients) has to parse the message.

If we go with the "announcement" model, then the parsing problem
is eliminated but there is no possibility of replies that are
invalid under 5321 when the announcement is not made, i.e., when
the message, headers, and addresses are strictly 5321-conforming.

Speaking personally, I could live with either decision although
I have a preference.  But we need to resolve this difference and
have an unambiguous interpretation for the authors of 5336bis to
complete their work.   I assume that will require a separate
consensus call but hope we can have enough discussion first that
everyone understands both options.

Right.  Although I assume that "UTF8V2" would cause us terrible
problems about whether we really intended a new version of UTF-8
and "or something" would be chosen.

More generally, there are two types of "extensions to EAI",
those that are really extensions and those that head off in
another direction.  There are also lots of in-between cases, so
the decision would be a judgment call.   Either way, that can be
done either by an additional extension keyword that requires EAI
as a prerequisite (as we have done with 8BITMIME) or a separate,
presumably orthogonal, extension.  

But, in my interpretation of Shawn's comment, let's not make
trouble for ourselves.   Paraphrasing a comment that was carried
forward into RFC 5321, we've had lots of experience that
extensions and features that are simple and that have few or no
options deploy well and without interoperability problems while
features that are more complex, with many options, tend to have
lots of trouble.  

The WG has explicitly decided on several occasions to try to
keep things simple and option-free: UTF-8 only rather than
allowances for other charsets in header fields, dropping
downgrading and alternate addresses, and so on.  Let's keep it
that way with one EAI, one set of specifications to which
everyone either conforms or does not, and so on.  We can all
invent plausible variations to cover theoretically-plausible
cases.  But let's not.

I think this is a very good point worthy of a separate consensus call - the
format document needs to say something like:

    Media types that support multiple charsets SHOULD employ either
    utf-8 or us-ascii.

As Shown wells knows, the continued use of charsets other than utf-8,
especially some of the multibyte ones whose definitions vary depending
on the software you're using, represent a significant ongoing interoperability
problem for email. Given that you have to support utf-8 to support EAI, there
is absolutely no reason for EAI to condone this nonsense.

That is the "announce capability and handshake" story in a

Certainly.   But if one adopts the "this messages needs EAI
capabilities" model, then that recipient (or at least a relay)
doesn't need to parse, it just needs to pass the indicator along
and reject if it hits a server that doesn't advertise EAI
capability.  Note the relationship between this and the
message/global situation: if I want to encapsulate and forward a
message, I can always encapsulate as message/global but can use
message/rfc822 only if I know that the outermost headers do not
require EAI capability.  Whether an EAI-conformant MUA should be
bothering to make that test, or should just retire
message/rfc822 in favor of message/global is a judgment call
that probably gets easier as more EAI-conformant systems deploy.

IMO the case that could be fixed by tracking some message state is an edge =
case.  If I go from one end to the other, encounter an EAI server, and then=
 end up back in a non-EAI environment, then, IMO, something's broken.  Even=
 if my message would work, "real" EAI messages would fail, so there's no po=
int to having an EAI server.  Once that end's fixed, then the "is this mess=
age ASCII-only" question becomes irrelevant.  I don't think we should build=
 in this edge case....

> IMO: An EAI compliant client shouldn't be sending "ASCII" mail, it should be sending "UTF-8" mail (even if it only contains ASCII range characters).  Sure they're the same, but there's no reason the client, or the server, need to care because they're both EAI aware.

I'm not sure about this. When a student of mine implemented the 
experimental version of eai a few years ago on a mail client, we 
realized that some of the counterparts of the user may be eai-capable, 
but others not. But the submission server will be eai-capable anyway.

I think this will be a very frequent situation for quite some while. 
Let's say I have some correspondents in Japan and China where eai gets 
deployed quickly. And I have correspondents in the US or Europe where 
uptake is slower. There is absolutely no need to send all outgoing mail 
as eai and have the outgoing server check everything and backpaddle 
where necessary.

So what we did was to assume eai was okay if there was at least one 
not-ascii-only (side-note: term carefully chosen to get past Dave :-) 
address. We also were looking at using other heuristics, such as "if I 
got an eai mail from somebody, it's okay to send one back" to be a bit 
more agressive with eai deployment/use and to hopefully close gaps where 
both sides are eai-capable but just don't know. But I'm not sure how far 
we got with implementing this.

I think this approach is more prudent because it avoids unnecessary 
transformations of mail in transit (and thus the potential of generating 
garbage or mail not passing, and with that some bad press for eai), and 
reduces server load.

At the very least, such an approach should be possible for clients (as 
far as I understand, it currently is, because the flag is on the MAIL 
command).

Regards,    Martin.

> *IF* the recipient wants to forward the message, his end can worry about what to do with the encoding at that time.  And if the server wants to send it on to a non-EAI server, then it can deal with it at that time.  Forcing the client to parse and continue to support this information, forever, even after 99% of the servers support EAI, is a waste of effort.

Or envelope although that case is presumably trivial.  Note that
it is possible to have an EAI requirement in the envelope but no
such requirement in the headers, but the envelope requirement is
easily determined by parsing.

And it is not "header" but "headers" because one could have a
main header that included "content-type: multipart/mixed" with
no data that was not 5322-compliant and various of the
subsidiary "MIME" headers having fields that would be UTF-8 and
non-MIME compliant without EAI.

That combination reinvents the argument for "just let them parse
if they really want to know" and takes us back to nearly where
we started.

I fear it is quite a common case and is likely to be for some
time.  Remember an observation that folks from your company have
probably made more strongly than anyone else: servers get
upgraded and replaced according to need but Operating Systems
and fundamental software (probably including non-web-client
MUAs, including POP and IMAP clients) get upgraded only when
computers are replaced.

We have a very general design rule that protocol elements of
various sorts stay ASCII-only.  They aren't seen by end users,
the complexities of Unicode comparisons and collations aren't
worth the trouble, nor is worrying about ambiguities brought
about by font availability and rendering, etc.  

If one had a media type whose purpose was to transmit a
collection of such protocol elements, we would certainly want it
to be ASCII-only.

Yes. Ideally with the same syntax as for any other commands where we add  
parameters, and ideally using the same keyword (UTF8SMTPbis) as used in  
EHLO

Yes.

But note that its use after the EHLO cannot be enforced by the server. It  
needs to take the form:
    "Clients MUST NOT use this parameter unless ..."
If clients fail to heed that, then "garbage in - garbage out" will apply.

Yes.

But please replace removed syntax by NOTEs of the form
    "<xxx> is defined in [RFCyyy] to be of the form:
       <helpful example or brief syntax summary>"
so that readers can follow the intent of the documents without excessive  
switching between RFCs.

However, it needs a NOTE to the efect that including this parameter in a  
message where it is not strictly necessary (that message is pure ASCII)  
MAY result in a more circuitous propagation path, or even in falure to  
deliver the message at all (e.g if the ultimate recipient does not  
advertise UTF8SMTPbis).

I don't think this meaning is perticularly important (and certainly not  
worth a second version of the parameter).

Not necessarily. If the body of the message cotains some long text in
Chinese, then using some charset encoding other than UTF-8 might make good  
sense because than encoding may be more compact. UTF-8 can often use 3  
(even 4) bytes to encode a character that other charsets can encode in 2  
bytes. In headers, one can tolerate those extra bytes, but not so in long  
bodies.

FWIW: That's pretty unclear to me.  I really think that there is no ready-m=

We're digressing, but it depends on whether or not you want the recipient t=

 to do with those types of inconsistencies.  A few extra bytes is worth the=
 guarantee.  (And if you attach a picture, then the size difference becomes=

Not necessarily. If the body of the message cotains some long text in
Chinese, then using some charset encoding other than UTF-8 might make good =
=20
sense because than encoding may be more compact. UTF-8 can often use 3 =20
(even 4) bytes to encode a character that other charsets can encode in 2 =20
bytes. In headers, one can tolerate those extra bytes, but not so in long =

bodies.

Yes, it would be a very good idea to include a statement like this.

UTF-8 is the exception here, which is why we need to encourage it's use. (OK,
so is UTF-16, but it has other issues.)

Almost always. But this is why I recommended a SHOULD, not a MUST. If a case
arises where the increased size is really more of an issue than the myriad
problems that arise from the generally crappy state of CJK encodings, then
there's sufficient justification to be able to violate the SHOULD and still be
able to claim compliance.

Indeed. We spend WAY too much time overoptimizing this sort of thing.

Yes; my point was that even if Charles' objection is legitimte, the necessary
freedom to use other CJK encodings isn't being eliminated by what we're
proposing.

Folks,


The answer to consensus call question 6 should be 'no'.


Ned Freed, Pete Resnick and I have been discussing the working group's basic
model for handling UTF-8 within a legacy, 7-bit world. The current approach is
certainly in line with the long-standing IETF pressure (demand) to have changes
of an existing system be designed in a way that protects and interworks with the
installed base, such as by not damaging a legacy system that receives an
enhanced form of data. And indeed, the working group's SMTP extension is an
example of keeping the new object away from legacy-only systems.

However, the model used in the case of RFC 5335 -- using new syntax elements
instead of extending old ones -- has produced quite a bit of complexity. In this
case, we believe the complexity is not serving the working group's goals all
that well.

That leads us to make a somewhat surprising suggestion to simplify
things considerably. The premise behind the suggestion is that the
world really does have extensive infrastructure for UTF-8 already and
that we can rely on it.

         So, the core suggestion is to have the revision focus
         only on the existing, basic 5322 ABNF constructs and
         simply augment them to support UTF-8.

         This would create what essentially would be an independent,
         UTF-8 email world.

         Interworking with the legacy email world still needs to be
         specified, but it should be done separately.

With the caveat that IDN handling in the spec still needs to be done, this 
produces a candidate to replace for Section 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 from the existing 
draft:


     [[ --------------------------------------



This section specifies UTF-8 enhancements for the header of an
Internet Mail message, as defined in [RFC5322].

ABNF used in this section is taken from that specification and the
ABNF specification.

This specification retains the [RFC5322] rules for defining header
field names. The bodies of header fields are allowed to contain UTF-8
characters, but the header field names themselves must contain only
ASCII characters.

The following rules extend the corresponding rules in [RFC5322] and
[RFC5234] in order to allow additional Unicode characters.

    VCHAR   =/  UTF8-non-ascii

    ctext   =/  UTF8-non-ascii

    atext   =/  UTF8-non-ascii

    qtext   =/  UTF8-non-ascii

    {{ how to add IDN to this? }}
    domain  =   dot-atom / domain-literal / obs-domain

This means that all the [RFC5322] constructs that build upon these
will permit UTF-8 characters, including comments and quoted strings.

    <field-name>

           [RFC5322] has the rule <field-name> which specifies
permissible names for user-defined header fields. The current
specification defines no changes to that rule.

    <msg-id>

           This ABNF enables Message-ID strings to be full UTF-8.
However the specification directs that Message-ID strings SHOULD be
restricted to ASCII.


      -------------------------------------- ]]




The SMTP extension is essential to this, of course. In addition it's worth
repeating that specification of UTF8-to-ASCII gatewaying is still needed, but we
suggest it be moved to a separate specification.

Since these are very basic ABNF rules, changes to them have an
extensive effect that is not immediately obvious.  So to aid the
reader, it's worth adding an appendix that lists the other ABNF of
RFC5322 that would be affected (ignoring the obs- rules)...




      [[ --------------------------------------

A. Changes to support UTF-8

This section provides a basic audit of the places in a message that
now can permit UTF-8 rather than being restricted to ASCII, based on
the changes to underlying ABNF. The audit ignores rules for "obsolete"
constructs in RFC 5322.

VCHAR:
     quoted-pair, unstructured
     > ccontent, qcontent
     > comment, quoted-string
     > word, local-part
     > phrase
     > display-name, keywords

     > name-addr
     > mailbox, group
     > address

     > address-list, mailbox-list

     > received-token, received

     > from, sender
     > reply-to, to, cc, bcc, resent-*

     > subject, comments, optional-field


ctext:
     ccontent > comment > comments


atext:
     atom, dot-atom-text

     > msg-id

     > local-part, domain
     > addr-spec

Well, it could, since the server can in theory keep track of whether or not
EHLO has been issued, and refuse to allow the parameter if no EHLO has been
seen.

But this opens up a can of worms. Suppose, for example, you want to further
restrict use of UTF8SMTPbis to clients that have done a STARTTLS, or have
authenticated with the correct identity, or whatever. (RFC 5321 makes it very
clear that sites are free to impose these sorts of policy-based restrictions.)
So it might be the case that the iniitial EHLO response the client got from
the server didn't include UTF8SMTPbis but the one it got later did.

So now the server has to track whether or not it sent back an EHLO response
with the "right stuff" in it. This is added complexity for no tangible benefit,
and is why I oppose saying "Servers MUST NOT accept VRFY/EXPN with the
parameter without first having offered the extension in an EHLO response."

>     "Clients MUST NOT use this parameter unless ..."

That's exactly the wording that I think needs to be used.

> If clients fail to heed that, then "garbage in - garbage out" will apply.

Yep.

Well, but the server still couldn't "enforce" that the client not send it. =
 It could fail or something if the client went ahead and did it, but the se=

>> But note that its use after the EHLO cannot be enforced by the server.

Standards tell you how to write your code to interoperate with other
systems that have implemented the same standard.  The answer to
questions about what happens if you do something other than what the
standard says boil down to "Who knows?" and "Don't do that."

So if you want your EAI VRFY to work, insofar as VRFY works at all,
say EHLO first.

Right.

Agreed.

I don't much care what the keyword is, but having it match is nice.

I stepped into such (or nearly such) implementation only once (an old 
version of Communigate), which however was always resulting in a non 
delivery message ("no such user") to sender because all the clients in 
common use did not understand the answer (forwarding suggestion) 
correctly, even if the message was pure ASCII anyhow. In subsequest 
versions it seems this "feature" was replaced by a plain "accept, store, 
then re-deliver" approach when forwarding was in actions, and no more 
problems were reported (at least to my knowledge).

Thus, +1 to Ned's comment. The complication is not worth the benefits.

just go back to the messages on the EAI ML where the "Rene'" :-) example 
was done, and you will see how many nonsense variations occured just in 
reporting the accented character. My old, and strict, PINE v4.64 client 
was continuosly struggling to undestand each variation :-) Of course other 
less primitive implementations always showed the accented "e" correctly, 
accepting many variants.

"do not touch a working MUA and MTA" is a common message in nearly all 
environments... and unless you really know that an upgrade will solve you 
many problems, nobody will do upgrades (... or more specifically, nobody 
will be allowed to do an upgrade, just because of the - small - risk of 
having a non working e-mail system after it).

Okay... we could start teling people that implementing EAI conformance 
will solve spam problems... and everybody will rush tu support it. But 
where do we hide ourselves when they discover it is not true?

True: requesting by default optional services when you do not need them 
either results in unecessary "costs", or potential risks. Thus we need to 
warn implementors (or users configuring things).

As I said in my review, repetitions, AND summaries can be very dangerous, 
non only when the original specification gets an update, but because they 
can give the reader/implementor the false sense of complete understanding 
of the environment (and e-mail IS complex). I'm inclided to say yes to 
helpful examples, and no to brief syntax summaries.

If we follow the current model, we will legitimate EAI-compliant systems 
to inject into the legacy installed base messages which are suppoused to 
be conformant, because we "updated" some specifications, instead of 
"extending them". As said earlier, however, we cannot expact the installed 
base to "update" so quickly, and this can result in serious problems, 
including loss of data (imagine a logging system which crashes because it 
receives someting which it cannot handle correctly, thus loosing the 
records still in memory).

they are the IETF-style version of "binary" protocol elements, for the 
sake of human readability. Machines do not need to emulate humans complex

Sorry, folks, but I'm seeing a contradiction here, not just
notes, and, if I were Jiankang, I'd have trouble knowing what to
write.

Option 1: Any EAI-capable client that is talking with a server
that supports EAI extensions SHOULD send the parameter with
MAIL, indicating that it is modern and that message envelope or
headers might contain UTF-8 (restricted however we might
restrict it, but not necessarily restricted to ASCII).  That
SHOULD might be accompanied by a note about exceptions. but the
intent is "almost always".   As I understand it, this is what
Shawn is proposing.

Option 2: In order to avoid requiring a subsequent analysis of
headers before dealing with a server that cannot handle EAI
extensions, an EAI-capable client talking with an EAI-capable
server SHOULD send the parameter only if it has reason to
believe that the message requires EAI support.  "Reason to
believe" allows exceptions and might be further noted, but the
intent is that the parameter not be sent with ASCII-only (aka
strictly 5321/5322-conforming) messages.  As I understand it,
this is what Charles and Ned are proposing.

In practice, option 2 probably gradually becomes equivalent to
option 1 as the EAI extensions are broadly deployed (just as
support for 8BITMIME (without requiring downgrading) is now
pretty general.  But, in the reasonably short term, it does make
a difference.  

So which is it?

Indeed, there have been several proposals to do this over the
years, none of which have assumed or required non-ASCII
materials in either the headers or the envelope.  With the
exception of the possible requirement to return addresses that
contain characters outside the ASCII in the responses to VRFY
and EXPN, the two sets of extensions are almost completely
orthogonal.

I believe option 2 is safer and more pragmatic.

I find writing different syntax using, for example, <utext> in place of  
the 5332's <text> leads to perfectly clear syntax with no possibility of  
confusion. We took just that approach in RFC 5536.

The reason why I prefer #1 is because it is only required if the server has=
 a need to figure it out.  Option #2 ALWAYS requires that the client figure=
 out the right thing to do, so it shifts the burden to the client.  Since t=
he client won't know when the "transition" is complete, #2 always has to ha=
ppen "forever".  At some point #1 can always stop the work.

Sorry, folks, but I'm seeing a contradiction here, not just
notes, and, if I were Jiankang, I'd have trouble knowing what to
write.

Option 1: Any EAI-capable client that is talking with a server
that supports EAI extensions SHOULD send the parameter with
MAIL, indicating that it is modern and that message envelope or
headers might contain UTF-8 (restricted however we might
restrict it, but not necessarily restricted to ASCII).  That
SHOULD might be accompanied by a note about exceptions. but the
intent is "almost always".   As I understand it, this is what
Shawn is proposing.

Option 2: In order to avoid requiring a subsequent analysis of
headers before dealing with a server that cannot handle EAI
extensions, an EAI-capable client talking with an EAI-capable
server SHOULD send the parameter only if it has reason to
believe that the message requires EAI support.  "Reason to
believe" allows exceptions and might be further noted, but the
intent is that the parameter not be sent with ASCII-only (aka
strictly 5321/5322-conforming) messages.  As I understand it,
this is what Charles and Ned are proposing.

In practice, option 2 probably gradually becomes equivalent to
option 1 as the EAI extensions are broadly deployed (just as
support for 8BITMIME (without requiring downgrading) is now
pretty general.  But, in the reasonably short term, it does make
a difference.

So which is it?

Shawn,

At some level, this is pretty obvious.  It even influenced some
of our early design decisions to keep things simple so that
implementation wasn't a big barrier.   I would disagree only
slightly with you about scope -- for Latin-based writing systems
that require more than the ASCII subset, how important the
additional characters are is a matter of the particular language
and local culture and conventions: I'm very reluctant to assume
that the US will be the only slow-adopter (and there will be
folks in the US who absolutely insist on their right to use
hearts and daggers in their user names).

But that doesn't change things very much:

-- We still need to design for a transition process, even if we
have reason to believe it will be globally short (and especially
short within particular communities).

-- Folks who need to communicate between very different
linguistic and writing system communities are likely to need to
use ASCII for a long, long, time.  Rows of little question marks
are not useful as addresses (and that isn't all of the problem).

-- Our track record in predicting speed of deployment is
terrible.  There are some reasons for that, some of which
interact with the MUA issues that I and others have discussed.
ASCII addresses for folks who don't use Latin-based characters
are terrible, but many generations of people have learned to use
addresses with no obvious linguistic meaning (e.g., I was happy
to stop having to receive mail at something like M3418, but I
lived with it for quite a while) and lots of people are now
"used to" the meaningless strings.  Faced with needing to change
established addresses and/or to replace hardware to get a new
MUA working... well, experience tells me to not predict how
people will behave and then make engineering decisions on that
basis.

IMO this is kind of the same conceptually as what the WG is trying to achie=
ve.  I need whatever gets us stable fastest :)

Re:
    {{ how to add IDN to this? }}
    domain  =3D   dot-atom / domain-literal / obs-domain

That should be:
    domain  =3D/  UTF8-non-ascii encoded RFC5890 U-label

There should be a note that a UTF-8 domain label MUST only contain valid RF=
C5890 u-labels.

Folks,


The answer to consensus call question 6 should be 'no'.


Ned Freed, Pete Resnick and I have been discussing the working group's basi=
c
model for handling UTF-8 within a legacy, 7-bit world. The current approach=
 is
certainly in line with the long-standing IETF pressure (demand) to have cha=
nges
of an existing system be designed in a way that protects and interworks wit=
h the
installed base, such as by not damaging a legacy system that receives an
enhanced form of data. And indeed, the working group's SMTP extension is an
example of keeping the new object away from legacy-only systems.

However, the model used in the case of RFC 5335 -- using new syntax element=
s
instead of extending old ones -- has produced quite a bit of complexity. In=
 this
case, we believe the complexity is not serving the working group's goals al=
l
that well.

That leads us to make a somewhat surprising suggestion to simplify
things considerably. The premise behind the suggestion is that the
world really does have extensive infrastructure for UTF-8 already and
that we can rely on it.

         So, the core suggestion is to have the revision focus
         only on the existing, basic 5322 ABNF constructs and
         simply augment them to support UTF-8.

         This would create what essentially would be an independent,
         UTF-8 email world.

         Interworking with the legacy email world still needs to be
         specified, but it should be done separately.

With the caveat that IDN handling in the spec still needs to be done, this
produces a candidate to replace for Section 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 from the exist=
ing
draft:


     [[ --------------------------------------



This section specifies UTF-8 enhancements for the header of an
Internet Mail message, as defined in [RFC5322].

ABNF used in this section is taken from that specification and the
ABNF specification.

This specification retains the [RFC5322] rules for defining header
field names. The bodies of header fields are allowed to contain UTF-8
characters, but the header field names themselves must contain only
ASCII characters.

The following rules extend the corresponding rules in [RFC5322] and
[RFC5234] in order to allow additional Unicode characters.

    VCHAR   =3D/  UTF8-non-ascii

    ctext   =3D/  UTF8-non-ascii

    atext   =3D/  UTF8-non-ascii

    qtext   =3D/  UTF8-non-ascii

    {{ how to add IDN to this? }}
    domain  =3D   dot-atom / domain-literal / obs-domain

This means that all the [RFC5322] constructs that build upon these
will permit UTF-8 characters, including comments and quoted strings.

    <field-name>

           [RFC5322] has the rule <field-name> which specifies
permissible names for user-defined header fields. The current
specification defines no changes to that rule.

    <msg-id>

           This ABNF enables Message-ID strings to be full UTF-8.
However the specification directs that Message-ID strings SHOULD be
restricted to ASCII.


      -------------------------------------- ]]




The SMTP extension is essential to this, of course. In addition it's worth
repeating that specification of UTF8-to-ASCII gatewaying is still needed, b=
ut we
suggest it be moved to a separate specification.

Since these are very basic ABNF rules, changes to them have an
extensive effect that is not immediately obvious.  So to aid the
reader, it's worth adding an appendix that lists the other ABNF of
RFC5322 that would be affected (ignoring the obs- rules)...




      [[ --------------------------------------

A. Changes to support UTF-8

This section provides a basic audit of the places in a message that
now can permit UTF-8 rather than being restricted to ASCII, based on
the changes to underlying ABNF. The audit ignores rules for "obsolete"
constructs in RFC 5322.

VCHAR:
     quoted-pair, unstructured
     > ccontent, qcontent
     > comment, quoted-string
     > word, local-part
     > phrase
     > display-name, keywords

     > name-addr
     > mailbox, group
     > address

     > address-list, mailbox-list

     > received-token, received

     > from, sender
     > reply-to, to, cc, bcc, resent-*

     > subject, comments, optional-field


ctext:
     ccontent > comment > comments


atext:
     atom, dot-atom-text

     > addr-spec

Yes, sort of.

This solution is much more acceptable to me if a note along the
lines that Charles suggests is added, but such notes need to
distinguish carefully between "version in RFC as specified" and
"version in RFC or its successor".

I can live with this approach.  If it is adopted, I'll help sort
out the domain name part.

If we go with the approach Dave Crocker suggested, this question
is OBE in the current form.

The real question, for either ABNF approach, is, IMO, whether CO
and C1 controls (and perhaps various other Unicode format
control and metadata characters) should be permitted in
addresses or email headers more generally.   I believe the
answer should be "no", but I believe it is much more important
that we make a decision and be clear about it.

Same here.  It seems to me that no matter what the ABNF says, once we
allow UTF-8 in headers, people will put it everywhere so the ABNF might
as well match the likely reality.

Bingo. Just as one example, message ids are often synthesized from available
host and domain information. If that information contains UTF-8, there's going
to be leakage into message ids from careless clients.

One thing both the old and new ABNF refrains from doing is adding utf-8 to
header labels. I think this is a defensible position and thus a reasonable
place to draw the line, although there's bound to be a little leakage even
there.

I'm not sure which you're saying should be used :)  I think that "or its su=
ccessor" is sort of a given regardless of whether it's stated or not.  (RFC=
s update themselves and don't necessarily think about all of the other RFCs=
 that depend on them.)

Either way, updates to the original RFC allow the risk that "something" wil=
l change, breaking the dependent RFC.

domain name part.

As mentioned, IMO, the domain part should "just" say UTF-8 as well, though =
it's fair to point out the dependencies on existing RFCs that define DNS.  =
DNS is a bit trickier than the other headers because we explicitly want to =
disallow the punycode I think, and require UTF-8 U-Labels instead.

Hi Dave,
Speaking as an individual participant (and not with my AD hat on): I

I do have one specific issue though, which, if agreed by others, can be 
thought of as a minor detail:
 [...]

   quoted-pair     =   ("\" (VCHAR / WSP)) / obs-qp

I have to say that I am not happy about any changes to quoted-pair. I 
haven't been around IETF for that long (as compared to other people 
participating in this discussion), so if I am saying something stupid 
here, I plead forgiveness. My view is that any slash escaping mechanism 
needs to be left as is. It only allows escaping of one following octet 
and changing this to escape multioctet sequences is going to require 
changes to parsers of this field for no good reason.
Besides non-ASCII UTF-8 sequences can already be included without escaping.

No objections to extending this one.

No matter what we do here, we'll open a can of worms, so a reasonable
goal is to pick the smallest possible can.

The argument about parsers is unpersuasive. A reasonable way to handle
UTF-8 text is to make a prepass over it to turn the entire string into
16 or 32 bit Unicode characters, then parse those, particularly on
computers like the IBM z/Series that have instructions to do the
translatation at high speed.  In that environment, the obvious thing
to quote is a character, not a byte, and I would argue that the
hackery involved to handle a quoted single byte in that environment is
a lot worse than adjusting the code in a byte at a time system to
handle a UTF-8 character.  Adapting a header parser for EAI messages
will introduce lots of changes to the byte at a time code to handle
UTF-8, and this is just another one.

More importantly, if you can quote an arbitrary byte, you now have the
ability to introduce arbitrary things into the message that are not
valid UTF-8.  Those worms have large painful fangs, and I would just
as soon not let them into my code or my messages.

You're right that quoting a non-ASCII character doesn't do anything
useful, but let's make sure it doesn't do anything awful, either.

So a quoted pair is backslash and a character, not a backslash and a
potentially not-a-character byte, and the ABNF change is correct.

I have to say I share your concern here.

Well, the problem is essentially a structural one in RFC 5321 - instead of
defining a single character repetoire for unstructured (which would logically
be called utext), the specification simply references VCHAR, which is a core
ABNF production. THis is a case where an ABNF shortcut ended up having
an undesireable coupling effect.

Had unstructured been defined this way:

    unstructured    =   (*([FWS] utext) *WSP) / obs-unstruct

    utext = VCHAR

we would not have this problem. So, while it isn't as clean, instead of
extending VCHAR we could redefine unstructured this way. The only effect
doing things this way changes is it gets rid of the effect on quoted-pair
and obs-unstruct.

This approach has two other advantages. One, we're not messing with a core ABNF
production any more. Two, we're not modifying the obsolete syntax this way,
which is the same as how ctext works so it's a bit more consistent.

Shawn,

I know that you want to "disallow" punycode.  In a perfect
world, I would too, and that is part of what
draft-iab-idn-encoding is about.  But, realistically, while we
can try to discourage its use, banning it is just impractical
given that A-labels conform to the RFC 1035 "preferred syntax",
the syntax requirements of RFCs 5321 and 5322, and even the
rather careful rules in RFC 5892 about what does and does not
need to be checked on lookup.

I haven't formed my own opinion about how best to handle these concerns, yet. 
So this note is meant for exploration...

Models for doing quoting vary between "provide an escape mechanism only for 
'special' characters" versus "make the quoting mechanism generic and allow ANY 
character to be quoted'.  There is, as noted, also the difference between 
escaping a collection of bits versus escaping "characters".

The quoting mechanism in RFC 5322 chose the model of allowing any (visible) 
character to be quoted.  And this did mean character, not "bag of bits", I 
believe.  One major advantage of any vs. selective characters is that a user is 
free to use quoting without having to worry about whether it's a special 
character.  So there's a usability benefit that's significant. However, in this 
case, the specification uses the human factors trick of "visibility".

The fact that the existing mechanism is already limited to a subset of full 
ASCII means that continuing to restrict the set of characters that can be quoted 
would merely be a continuation of that model.  It's also true that there is no 
"need" to quote other UTF-8 characters, I suppose.

That said, I'm leaning towards having the mechanism require as little thought by 
the user as possible.  Having to think about whether the character is below x07f 
or above it strikes me as poor human factors.

The modification to define <utext> seems reasonable.

(disclaimer: I remain tentative aboout discussing anything in the IDN realm, so 
when -- not if -- I get an issue wrong, please be gentle...)


I think the modification for domain name pertains to the <dot-atom> rule.

It's temping to do an incremental enhancement to it that is similar to the other 
proposed UTF-8 additions, but of course IDN is rather more complicated.

So it's tempting to just do something like:

    dot-atom = <u-label>

if there were such an ABNF rule already defined.  Worse, the definition of 
<u-label> is not simple.  It is another case of defining things as "not ASCII" 
rather than as "UTF-8".  It's requirement that the string have at least one 
character above x07f makes it a less usable construct for our purposes than one 
might have expected.

I have not found any ABNF that covers the legal domain name characters for 
"native" UTF-8.  I believe that rule needs to be defined and then we should use 
it directly.

Since we are specifying a relatively clean UTF-8 environment, we should probably 
try to avoid UTF8-over-ASCII encoding mechanisms, if that's reasonable.

I don't see any problem with a SHOULD.   But the ability to use
an A-label anywhere that a U-label is permitted is fairly
fundamental to the IDNA design.  Unless you want to get the WG
into the business of updating IDNA itself -- IMO, a bad idea and
probably outside charter-- I don't see any practical way to go
beyond a SHOULD.  Note that, while we avoided RFC 2119 language
(consistent with the IESG decision to process 4952bis as
Informational), the Framework document already essentially has
the SHOULD.  In Section 7.1 of draft-eai-frmwrk-4952bis-10,
general principle (1), we have:

	When the local part of the address includes characters
	outside the ASCII character repertoire, use of
	ASCII-compatible encoding (ACE) [RFC3492] [RFC5890] in
	the domain part is discouraged to promote consistent
	processing of characters throughout the address.

"strongly discouraged" is pretty clear.  

And, slipping on my co-chair hat for a moment, since 4952bis has
successfully been through WG and IETF Last Call and IESG
signoff, in the absence of significant new issues, I consider
this a settled matter that is not subject to further debate or
discussion.  Whatever text appears in 5336bis/5335bis needs to
be consistent with that principle, but that should be an
editorial matter, not a substantive one.

Most definitely #2. For sure that is what I have been assuming in all the  
comments I have posted.

Now there may be reasons for toning down the wording a bit. I take Shawn's  
point that when everybody is using EAI there is little point in striving  
to maintain that SHOULD. And it may be just too much trouble for some MUAs  
or submission agents to make the necessary checks.

So replacing "an EAI-capable client ... SHOULD send ..." by "an  
EAI-capable client ... would be well advised to send ...". Followed, of  
course, by that NOTE explaining the difficulties that might ensue of the  
advice is not taken. It is then up to each implementor to evaluate the  
warnings in the NOTE in the light of his own circumstances, and the then  
prevailing practice in the great big world outside.

Yes.

A message may contain nested MIME structure and may contain UTF-8
filename in a MIME header field.

Inspecting nested MIME structure and checking each MIME header field
are too expensive to impliment in MTAs, I think.

I think that King Canute may have some useful advice for us here.

It is obviously the case that for a while, perhaps quite a while, #2
will make it more likely that your mail will get delivered to the many
non-EAI destinations, and it's probably worth putting a note and a
SHOULD about that.  But particularly in areas where English is not the
major language, people will do #1 and EAI mail hosts better be
prepared to deal with it, for some definition of deal with it yet to
be finalized.

R's,
John

That would be accomplished by either: 

(i) "MUST supply the parameter if the envelope or message
requires EAI facilities and SHOULD NOT supply it if the client
is EAI-capable but not using EAI facilities"

or

(ii) "MUST supply the parameter if the envelope or message
requires EAI facilities and MAY supply it if the client is
EAI-capable but not using EAI facilities"

Either of those would be consistent with Option 2, the second is
a lot weaker.

I'd go with (ii) since that's likely to match what people really do.

In case it wasn't obvious, I also prefer (ii).

Unfortunately that doesn't help the server "downgrade" a mail, it'd still h=
ave to see if it could treat it as a legacy message.  It does, however, hel=
p the server realize that this situation might apply.

Unless someone strongly objects, can we save the downgrade discussion
for later?  Lots of worms in that can, no matter what we decide at
this point.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Email Address Internationalization Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Internationalized Email Headers
	Author(s)       :  . Yang, et al.
	Filename        : draft-ietf-eai-rfc5335bis-08.txt
	Pages           : 12
	Date            : 2011-01-24

Internet mail was originally limited to 7-bit ASCII.  Recent
enhancements support Unicode's UTF-8 encoding in portions of a
message.  Full internationalization of electronic mail requires
additional enhancement, including support for UTF-8 in user-oriented
header fields, such as in the To, From, and Subject fields.  This
document specifies an enhancement to Internet mail that permits
native UTF-8 support in the header and body of a message.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-eai-rfc5335bis-08.txt

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP at:
ftp://ftp.ietf.org/internet-drafts/

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

This is not cool. I didn't authorize this version, I don't believe 
chairs have authorized it either.

This version contains changes that are not yet officially agreed by the 
WG and also includes changes that weren't even discussed in the WG.

I would ask editors to rollback the changes, unless chairs tell me that 
this version was actually authorized by at least one of them.

Thanks,
Alexey

At least this co-chair was as surprised as you were.  I thought
we had an agreement that no more drafts were to be posted
without an official announcement of consensus on the points
covered.  I'm assuming that Joseph will start posting such
announcements relatively soon, but I haven't seen them.

This is perhaps also an appropriate time to remind everyone that
Editors are appointed by WG Chairs with the advice and consent
of ADs, not by other editors.

Shawn,

To clarify this situation from my point of view -- Alexey and/or
Joseph may feel differently -- there are two very separate sets
of issues here:

One was an explicit instruction to the author group -- from
Alexey, Joseph, and myself-- to avoid posting new drafts until
after Joseph announced decisions about the consensus calls.  The
reason for that instruction, which I think we explained at the
time, was simply to avoid confusion in the WG about competing
drafts, what text was assumed to represent consensus and what
was draft text for consideration, what the relationship was
between suggestions on the list and text in the drafts, etc.

Those goals derive simply from a desire to clearly identify
points of agreement and disagreement and make rapid progress.
They have little or nothing to do with IETF-specific procedures
although the ability and authority to give that sort of
direction and expect it to be followed is integral to the
ability of WG Chairs to manage WGs (and to ADs to manage the WGs
and/or the Chairs).  Anyone in the author group (or anyone in
the WG) who didn't like those instructions was free to initiate
a discussion with the co-Chairs or the AD, including filing an
appeal if the disagreement could not be resolved.

The second group of issues may or may not be tied up with subtle
IETF procedures, whatever you believe or have been told about
personal histories, etc.

While some reactions along the lines of that second group of
issues may be inevitable --we are, after all, dealing with
people here-- I believe that the reactions you saw from Alexey
and myself this morning were strictly derived from that first
group and the desire to keep the WG moving forward rather than
having it distracted by confusion about consensus, side-issues,
competing drafts that address different topics, etc.

At this point, I believe that it would be helpful if whomever of
you or Abel did the actual posting were to drop a note to the
Secretariat (at internet-drafts@ietf.org) indicating that the
draft was posted by mistake and asking that it be taken down.
Please copy Joseph, Alexey, and myself -- it will save time.

Beyond that, I strongly recommend that we just move on to
announcements about consensus, new drafts based on those
announcements (which, if Joseph concludes the WG has reached
consensus on the subject, should include these ABNF changes to
5335bis and corresponding changes to 5336bis), and then seeing
if the WG is enough in agreement with those new drafts to
progress them to the IESG.  I see that as the fastest path to
getting these documents finished and approved -- a goal on which
I hope we all still agree.  If you disagree with that as a
strategy, we should discuss it --ideally on the WG list rather
than a series of private discussions or negotiations-- rather
than doing anything that appears to be preemptive (whether that
was the intent or not).

best,
    john

Dear Alexey,

I am very sorry that I updated the -08 draft yesterday directly
and not authorized by chairs or your review at this stage.
I apologized to you, chairs, and everyone affected by this in
this working group. You must have been disappointed by my
mistake. Hope that we can kindly solve this problem

Shawn and I agreed to rollback, and Shawn have sent a rollback
request. Again, we want to say sorry to each of you sincerely.

Yours truly,

Abel

This is not cool. I didn't authorize this version, I don't believe
chairs have authorized it either.

This version contains changes that are not yet officially agreed by the
WG and also includes changes that weren't even discussed in the WG.

I would ask editors to rollback the changes, unless chairs tell me that
this version was actually authorized by at least one of them.

Thanks,
Alexey

Speaking as an individual: having different metalanguage models
in the two documents would be a bad idea and certain to make
things harder for readers.  If we are going to change the model
or terminology in both documents, both (and 5337bis as
appropriate) need to change.

Speaking as co-chair: please see my note to the DT/author's list
yesterday (for WG members not on that list, it summarized a
plan, discussed at around the beginning of this consensus call
cycle, for being sure drafts are aligned with announced WG
consensus and coordinated wrt this sort of "changes to one
require changes to others" situation).

The current proposal is for changes to RFC5335bis.

My other response to you query was to clarify what has so far been presented.

This note is meant to cover the topic more broadly:


    1. Two documents that share normative content should not repeat that 
content.  One should cite the relevant portion(s) of the other.  This was 
discussed earlier.  Redundancy invites divergence and disparity.

    2. The proposal for changes to RFC5336bis are being put forward first 
because it specifies the email object.  It is therefore the core specification, 
IMO, and needs to be clarified first.

    3. Issues with the ABNF in rfc5336bis are the same as with rfc5335bis.  As 
the group settles on the revisions for the ABNF in rfc5335bis, then rfc5336bis 
should be modified to cite that ABNF.

    4. The two of us who reviewed rfc5336bis made various recommendations.  The 
handling of those is, I believe, separate from concerns about rfc5335bis.

All,

Following responses, this issue was overtaken by Dave Crocker's =
proposal, and in rough consensus (with huge majority), Dave's proposal =
is acceptable by the WG and few works needed (ie. IDN).

Note, Dave's proposal is for RFC5335bis rather than RFC5336bis (which is =
what's this issue about), discussion will follow on how to adopt it for =
RFC5336bis (ie. confirm where contents are shared or different etc)

Result will be documented at issue tracker =

Please notify me of any errors, misunderstanding, or missed opinions.

All,

Following responses, this issue reached the consensus to add parameter =
on MAIL FROM.  The result will be documented at issue tracker =
(http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/eai/trac/report/1).

Subsequent  proposed questions=20
1. What is the name of the parameter?
2. Does the parameter have value or not?  What kind of value?

New issues raised during the discussion
1. There are 2 different ideas of MAIL FROM interaction between MUA and =
MTA.=20
    1.1 MUA tells MTA that itself is EAI capable, hence all messages run =
in "EAI-mode" (MUA always uses the parameter when available)
    1.2 MUA tells MTA that the following message needs to run under =
EAI-mode (the next message from MUA may not use the parameter, although =
both are EAI capable, the interaction and message run under  =
RFC5321/5322)
I will start a new thread for this discussion.   =20


Please notify me of any errors, misunderstanding, or missed opinions.

Sorry my response was unclear.

I meant that it should be kept, but should be renamed to message/utf8-rfc822.

The purpose of renaming is to make it clear that this is a variation of an 
existing, important message type.  In addition "global" is far too generic, IMO.

Excellent idea.


Perhaps something like:

    The details for <x> are covered in <y>.

where:

    x specifies the topic, issue, problem or the like that needs to be 
highlighted in the current draft; the wording of this characterizes the concern 
that warrants making the citation.

    y is as precise a citation as can be provided.

This is a core question that we should answer carefully and clearly.

I think there are two different issues that are actually independent:


    1. Is the client submitting a message that should be treated as UTF-8

       A message might be in UTF-8, even if it contains only ASCII characters.


    2. Can the client handle responses that contain UTF-8?

       Even if the client is submitting a legacy ASCII message, the server might 
need to reply with information containing UTF-8.  This has been mentioned on the 
list, but I don't remember seeing the group come to consensus on whether this 
needs to be supported.

       Note that the server cannot know whether the client supports UTF-8 
replies, unless the client happens to signal that a message is in UTF-8.

I suggest that the parameter on the MAIL command should only mean that the 
message is in UTF-8, and that a separate /explicit/ flag is needed for the 
session, to let the server know that the client can handle UTF-8 in replies.

Follow-on thoughts...

The following presumes working group consensus to have a UTF8 parameter on the 
MAIL command...

The current work really is designed for using UTF-8 in a "pure" UTF-8 
environment.  Although we all know that gatewaying between UTF-8 and the legacy 
ASCII environment is needed, that requirement is being moved for separate 
handling:  The current effort is to define a pure UTF-8 world.

As such, all messages from the client will label submitted messages as being in 
UTF-8.  That is, the MAIL command will declare UTF-8.  And that means that the 
server knows that UTF-8 in replies are acceptable.

For now, we can ignore the possibility that a client might submit a legacy ASCII 
message but the server would want to return a response containing UTF-8.



As for the meaning of the MAIL command parameter:

 >>> Option 1: Any EAI-capable client that is talking with a server

Unfortunately this type of language winds up requiring additional precise 
specification of the meaning of "requires EAI facilities" and "EAI-capable".

A much simpler approach is to define the option in terms of data, declaring that 
all data (commands, responses and message) are in "network" UTF-8.  That is, the 
version of UTF-8 defined in the ABNF specified by the working group.

If the client hasn't set the EAI flag on MAIL FROM, as far as the
server is concerned, it's a legacy client sending an ASCII message.
If a server can't return an ASCII response, it's not compatible with
legacy clients.  That seems like a really bad idea.

Since EXPN and VRFY have their own flags, the only places I'm aware of
that it might be desirable to have non-ASCII in response text is RCPT
TO responses 251 and 551.  If we're going to do anything about that
tiny case, my suggestion would be non-normative advice to server
operators that if they know where a message should go, just send it
there and respond with 250 instead.

All other response text from MAIL FROM, RCPT TO, and DATA is just
cosmetic, so it doesn't matter.

To avoid more incompatibility with legacy clients, please don't.

I think that defining the flag as "UTF8 is enabled" is sufficient.

If the client can send UTF-8, then the client can handle UTF8 responses.  I=
f UTF8 is permitted, it's sort of irrelevent if the message happens to be a=
ll-ASCII, though it may be convenient to know that additional information.

So I'd like to see the flag just mean "UTF8 is enabled." =20

Clearly if the sender knows the message is all-ascii, it could avoid the fl=
ag if it wanted to.

The following presumes working group consensus to have a UTF8 parameter on =
the
MAIL command...

The current work really is designed for using UTF-8 in a "pure" UTF-8
environment.  Although we all know that gatewaying between UTF-8 and the le=
gacy
ASCII environment is needed, that requirement is being moved for separate
handling:  The current effort is to define a pure UTF-8 world.

As such, all messages from the client will label submitted messages as bein=
g in
UTF-8.  That is, the MAIL command will declare UTF-8.  And that means that =
the
server knows that UTF-8 in replies are acceptable.

For now, we can ignore the possibility that a client might submit a legacy =
ASCII
message but the server would want to return a response containing UTF-8.



As for the meaning of the MAIL command parameter:

Unfortunately this type of language winds up requiring additional precise
specification of the meaning of "requires EAI facilities" and "EAI-capable"=
.

A much simpler approach is to define the option in terms of data, declaring=
 that
all data (commands, responses and message) are in "network" UTF-8.  That is=
, the
version of UTF-8 defined in the ABNF specified by the working group.

Except that it's not irrelevant.

If the message is actually a UTF8 message, then the SMTP receiver is going to 
have to turn around and require support for UTF8 on the next hop.

It needs to know whether that is required.

So "enabled" is not sufficient.  In fact, that's why the option needs to be used 
to label the character encoding of the message.

The semantics need to mean that the message is actually UTF-8 and that it 
requires a UTF-8 path through to delivery.

That's too casual.

If the message is an ASCII message -- as opposed to a UTF-8 message that only 
consumed x07F and below -- then the UTF8 option MUST NOT be used.

However if the message is UTF-8 -- even if it happens to consume only  x07F and 
below -- then the option MUST be used.

That's correct.

What do you mean "a server can't return an ASCII response"?

That would mean that it cannot support legacy traffic.  If that's the case, we 
are far, far outside the IETF standards.

If you mean that the server has UTF-8 data that it wants to include in a 
response, but it won't be able to, then yes that is correct.

What are the actual, or expected, scenarios for which this is a major problem?

What is the basis for believing they will occur with any great frequency?  That 
is, how important are those scenarios to support and how do we know that?

If the client is sending around UTF-8 messages, it has to support UTF-8 
elsewhere in the session.  Anything else would make little sense.

The only issue occurs when a server wants to return UTF-8 data but the client 
has not added the UTF8 parameter to a command.


> To avoid more incompatibility with legacy clients, please don't.

And herein lies the core issue:

      The EAI work tried to maintain compatibility with legacy systems in its 
previous round of effort and it didn't work very well.

      For this round, it is trying to specify operation in a UTF8-clean environment.

As already noted, gatewaying between legacy and UTF8 is certainly important, but 
it needs to be specified separately.  Including it within the current work has 
apparently -- and not surprisingly -- consistently created confusion.  (As I 
fear it is doing now.)

Here's the overall system architecture, showing a number of different 
interoperability scenarios:

  +-----------+                                      +-----------+
  | MUA-ASCII |                                      | MUA-ASCII |

                |                |                |
                |                |                |
                |                |                |

  +-----------+    +-----------+    +-----------+    +----+------+
       ^                                                  |
       |                                                  V

  +-----------+                                      +-----------+


(This concerns SMTP and the RFC5322 header, not the MIME mechanisms for 
supporting UTF-8.)

The diagram shows an ASCII-clean service on top, with a UTF8-clean service 
below, and 3 points of gatewaying between them.  Gatewaying might be in either 
direction.

       (Note that it is entirely possible for a single piece of software to 
support two or more of the functions shown above.  But the chart is about 
network architecture, not software implementation.)

The legacy service supports only MSA-ASCII/MTA-ASCII, MTA-ASCII/MTA-ASCII, and 
MTA-ASCII/MDA-ASCII interactions.

The current specification is attempting ONLY to specify the MSA-UTF8/MTA-UTF8, 
MTA-UTF8/MTA-UTF8, and MTA-UTF8/MDA-UTF8 interactions.

Additional effort -- in a separate specification -- is required to cover the 
/six/ gatewaying activities -- one for each direction, at each point of gatewaying.

I was referring to this:

>>> I suggest that the parameter on the MAIL command should only mean
>>> that the message is in UTF-8, and that a separate /explicit/ flag is
>>> needed for the session, to let the server know that the client can
>>> handle UTF-8 in replies.

This suggests that there would be situtations where the server want to 
send UTF-8 replies, but the client couldn't handle them, which I think we 
agree could break legacy mail.

If you meant it the other way around, that a client can send UTF-8 
messages with UTF-8 addresses in the envelope, but not handle UTF-8 text 
in the SMTP responses, the right answer is still Don't Do That.

Again, I'm trying to think of a plausible scenario in which that would be 
useful.  Someone made all the changes for UTF-8 message headers, 
message/global bodies, and UTF-8 envelopes, but it was too hard to handle 
UTF-8 in the SMTP response comments?  I don't get it.

If the question is about relaying the text of the response back to a 
hypothetical prior link that doesn't do UTF-8, I don't see any reason to 
add extra complication to make that the server's problem rather than the 
client's.  Maybe the server has alternate text available, maybe it 
doesn't.  A client that needs to downcode has a variety of options without 
any help from the server, such as substituting a generic message 
appropriate for the response code.

Hi.  King Canute here.

For the benefit of all the MUA and MTA implemeters, can you explain in
as few words as possible what the difference is between an ASCII
message and a UTF-8 message where all the bytes are ASCII, and why
it's important for them to maintain the distinction between the two?
(I think I understand the difference, but I don't think I can explain
it so as to make it sound like it's worth caring about.)

It seems to me that no matter what we say, they're going to use simple
hacks like scanning the headers and envelope to see if there's
anything with the high bit set, or maybe even at setup time asking
what the user's preferred character set is, and turning on the EAI
flag if it's anything other than ASCII.

At this point we can guess based on our limited experience what is
likely to maximize backwards compatibility.  But I expect that as soon
as one or two of the big webmail systems support EAI, which is likely
to be soon since they all operate all over the world, the normal
answer to any question that includes words like downcode will be "just
get a Gmail account and read your mail there."

R's,
John

This syntax would certainly distinguish among the three cases we're talking
about:

  1-Legacy Client, 
  2-EAI Client & ASCII Message, 
  3-EAI Client & EAI Message.

And I have already recommended something like this.

However, if the desire is *only* to distinguish between a Legacy Client & an
EAI Client without saying anything about each message, that is an attribute
of the *session* and replicating the flag on every MAIL FROM: is bizarre!

Unless, of course, we wish to accommodate clients that mutate their
abilities during the course of a session. :-)

correct. This UTF8 scenario is an upgrade which cannot be compatible with 
the previous version, e.g. we cannot in any case expect that legacy e-mail 
will be able to transport "without any kind of getewaying action" UTF8 
mail.

many +1 !

As we also need (as discussed on the ML) a more detailed document 
(referenced from the current specifications) which dscribes gatewaying 
issues, both with legacy e-mail and other (non IETF) mail standards, there 
is a very good reason for keeping this separate, too.

and this is just for THIS kindof gateway (the most important and common

Dave,

With the understanding that I personally favor sending a MAIL
command announcement only if EAI capabilities are required,
please explain what the second paragraph quoted above means.
If I were taking the position I understand Shawn to be
advocating, I would say "well, the client is EAI-capable, there
is no way to distinguish between an ASCII message and a message
that is UTF-8 but only contains characters in the ASCII code
point range ('x07F and below') than I should send the parameter
in all cases".

"should"?  under what circumstances would it be acceptable not to?

IMO this cannot happen consistently enough to trust the values, however I w=
elcome your response to John's question.

ASCII messages and UTF-8 messages in the <=3D0x7f are identical and should =
be allowed to be treated as such.

Certainly, I'm typing a message now.  It could be transmitted in either ASC=
II or UTF-8 (Since I removed the Klingon from my signature).  The client ha=
s no clue whether the user intends ASCII or UTF-8, and it is irrelevent whe=
ther this message is sent in ASCII or UTF-8.  (Presumably it'll use whateve=
r defaults OWA's giving me).  If this messege is intended as ASCII and sent=
 with legacy SMTP, it'll behave.  If it's intended as UTF-8 and sent with l=
egacy SMTP, it'll also behave.  Ditto for an EAI aware system.  So there's =
no need to care whether this message is ASCII or UTF-8.

I do agree that some of the current drafts could be simpler by have "ASCII =
encoded" (legacy) messages or "UTF-8 encoded" (EAI) messages, however, in p=
ractice, it really doesn't matter if someone uses the UTF8 encoding for an =
ASCII encoded message.  That's part (probably most) of why UTF-8 was design=
ed as a superset.

If you're worried about "ASCII encoded" that happens to have data with the =
8th bit set, well, you're already in a broken place.  That's illegal, there=
's no such thing as 8-bit ASCII with the 8th bit set, it must always be zer=
o.  That leads to the kind of ambiguity we have today when mail is sent wit=
h system code pages.  If such mail was sent as UTF-8, it must fail, which i=
s great.

Dave,

With the understanding that I personally favor sending a MAIL
command announcement only if EAI capabilities are required,
please explain what the second paragraph quoted above means.
If I were taking the position I understand Shawn to be
advocating, I would say "well, the client is EAI-capable, there
is no way to distinguish between an ASCII message and a message
that is UTF-8 but only contains characters in the ASCII code
point range ('x07F and below') than I should send the parameter
in all cases".

All,

(First, sorry for late delivery on this one, somehow the original 'seems =
lost', and thanks to JianKang to bring this to my attention)

Following responses, this issue has not reach any consensus, due to lack =
to participation (4 expressed opinions) and result evenly split.  =
Including opinions expressed prior consensus (during Dec, 2010 to Jan =
2010) the result remains the same.

I will keep this question open until Feb 3 (Thursday) 9pm Pacific Time =
for more opinions to determine whether a more definitive consensus could =
be reached. =20

There is suggestion, from Barry, to contribute section of terminology to =
be used by EAI.  There are debates on whether it should be done at =
larger scale, a RFC with the terminology meant for all drafts rather =
than just EAI.  I welcome the discussion but please address the question =
of do we need new reference and term for "ASCII", "non-ASCII", "UTF-8" =
first.

Please notify me of any errors, misunderstanding, or missed opinions.

Regards,
Joseph

We are agreed that we DON'T want servers en route to be doing that.

But clients and submission servers MIGHT do that (or get the information  
some other way). We don't insist that they do, nor do we insist that they  
don't. So at most it is a "MAY" - or rather it is "MAY include the UTF8  
parameter on a pure ASCII message", but coupled with a NOTE (text already  
discussed) warning of the downside of doing so.

Yes it DOES matter. Because the message would then be forwarded ONLY over  
routes that advertise UTF8SMTPbis, and there might not exist such a route  
to the intended destination, in which case it would bounce.

I can't vote 2x, but I would prefer to keep the current terminology so we d=
on't rathole.  I think a section within the document defining our terms wou=
ld be adequate.  Another RFC for terminology is certainly out of scope for =
the WG.

All,

(First, sorry for late delivery on this one, somehow the original 'seems lo=
st', and thanks to JianKang to bring this to my attention)

Following responses, this issue has not reach any consensus, due to lack to=
 participation (4 expressed opinions) and result evenly split.  Including o=
pinions expressed prior consensus (during Dec, 2010 to Jan 2010) the result=
 remains the same.

I will keep this question open until Feb 3 (Thursday) 9pm Pacific Time for =
more opinions to determine whether a more definitive consensus could be rea=
ched. =20

There is suggestion, from Barry, to contribute section of terminology to be=
 used by EAI.  There are debates on whether it should be done at larger sca=
le, a RFC with the terminology meant for all drafts rather than just EAI.  =
I welcome the discussion but please address the question of do we need new =
reference and term for "ASCII", "non-ASCII", "UTF-8" first.

Please notify me of any errors, misunderstanding, or missed opinions.

Regards,
Joseph

I disagree.  If the message could be sent in ASCII and reach the destinatio=
n, then I have no problem with that message reaching the destination if it =
happened to be encoded in UTF-8 but only used the lower 7 bits.  In fact, t=
he only way to tell the difference is if someone explicitly included additi=
onal information, not in the message itself, that the message was "supposed=
" to be UTF-8 or ASCII.  Message routing shouldn't be dependent on informat=
ion that isn't within the message. =20

Exactly right. A client that marks non-EAI messages as being EAI messages is
going to see those message bounce when they attempt to cross over into the
non-EAI-extended world - which right now is "everywhere".

And to those who think this is going to deploy so quickly that this won't be an
issue... dream on. Although John is quite correct when he says that we suck at
predicting how quickly things will deploy, the notion that this will happen
overnight flies in the face of every bit of experience we have from having
spent the past three decades updating email infrastructure. The best you can
hope for - and I think this is still completely unrealistic - is a transition
period of several years.

OTOH, we tried something similar to this in MIME when we said that clients
SHOULD "minimize" use of more complex charsets, e.g., don't use iso-8859-1 when
US-ASCII suffices. Some clients followed this recommendation but a lot did not,
and the users of those clients got a markedly inferior user experience as a
result.

Additionally, handling this really well at the client level is not as simple as
keeping track of EAI usage with a flag. Consider the case where you have
multiple recipients for a message, some with EAI addresses and others not, and
for whatever reason with the recipient addresses not appearing in the header. A
straightforward client would send a single message copy to all recipients with
the EAI flag set. But a more sophisticated client might notice that it can send
a non-EAI message to the non-EAI recipients without any content loss. And if
those recipients are in the non-EAI-extended world, this may be the only
approach that works in thie case.

So at its heart this is really a client quality issue. Absent near-universal
EAI-deployment, clients that take the trouble to check and only label actual
EAI messages as EAI will provide a superior user experience to ones that
blindly label everything they send as EAI. And those that don't will provide
gainful employnment for lots of call center staff.

It seems to me there are three separate features here:

A) Messages with UTF-8 headers
B) Envelopes with UTF-8 addresses
C) SMTP responses with UTF-8 text

The current proposal is to have one flag that enables (ABC).  Dave, as
I understand it, wants one flag for (AB) and a separate flag for (C).
I suppose one could separate them out further.

For reasons I think I've explained about as well as I can, I don't see
much utility in more than one flag, and a lot of opportunity for
confusion and broken implementations.

I also agree with Ned that it's a quality of implementation issue
whether a client only sets the flag for messages and/or envelopes that
need it, or for everything.  And it's debatably a quality of
implementation issue for a server whether it passes along the flag
that came with a message on a subsequent hop, or inspects it to see
whether it needs the flag.  So perhaps we can say something about it
as a MAY or SHOULD, but don't mandate finicky rules that implementors
are likely to ignore.

I think, as a practical matter, that this is the most reasonable approach.

I agree with Ned and John.  I think one flag is sufficient, and that SHOULD=
 or MAY is sufficient for further tweaking the use cases.

I cited distinctions, along the lines of your list above.  That recitation was 
not to indicate my own preference but to clarify the possibilities.

After thinking it through, my observation was (and remains) that having a single 
MAIL command flag that declares a message to be in UTF-8 is all that it is needed:

    It specifies the type of the message AND implies the capabilities of the client.

    There does not seem to be any need for handling the differential scenarios 
that would be enabled by having additional flags.

This would move the protocol specification into the realm of heuristics. 
Protocols should not involve guessing.

If a message is changed from UTF-8 to ASCII or vice-versa, then it has gone 
through a gateway, not a relay.  That sort of cleverness is the distinction 
between MTA relaying and translation gatewaying.

The current specification seeks to provide details for MTA relaying of a UTF-8 
message.  Don't confuse that task with the details for gatewaying.

The specific scenario I have in mind is one where a client sends a message 
with the EAI flag set, then the server relays it, and it turns out that 
the next hop doesn't need the flag.  There are a variety of sub-scenarios 
here, e.g., client was lazy and set the flag on an ASCII message, client 
sent to a mix of EAI and ASCII addresses, client sent to EAI address which 
server relays to an ASCII address.  The behavior is entirely algorithmic, 
but it's not clear what the ideal algorithm would be.

I am specifically NOT suggesting that we try to solve this problem here, 
nor that we mandate what the client do beyond requiring that it set the 
EAI flag if the message or envelope is non-ASCII.

Having a system along the handling sequence impose a change on a message might 
be algorithmic in a software sense, but it is a heuristic in terms of 
justification, absent a formal standards specification dictating the change.

Then I do not understand how this foray into the topic has aided deciding on the 
details of the parameter.

Well, gee, this is hardly a new problem.  You had a somewhat analogous 
situation with 8BITMIME, where some relay MTAs were (and, I suppose, still 
are) better than others at recoding messages or noticing that a message 
didn't really need it.

Pick the simplest possible version, since extra complication won't help.
