I suggest switch Section 1 and Section 2. BTW, there is a dot after
"Intended Status: Experimental"
I suggest reusing the text from the Abstract as the first paragraph
in Section 2 as it makes the scope mentioned in Section 3 clearer:
This document describes considerations for mailing lists with the
introduction of internationalized email addresses {RFC5336] and
makes some specific recommendations on how mailing lists should
act in various situations.
In Section 2:
"Some mailing lists alter the message header, while others do not."
Shouldn't that be "message header fields"?
"(that is, each address either is ASCII or has an ALT-ADDRESS)."
I suggest adding a reference to RFC 5336 for ALT-ADDRESS.
In Section 5, some editorial changes are suggested for the second paragraph:
List-Id: List Header Mailing List <list-header.example.com>
List-Help: <mailto:list(_at_)example(_dot_)com?subject=help> (List
Instructions)
List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:list(_at_)example(_dot_)com?subject=unsubscribe>
List-Subscribe: <mailto:list(_at_)example(_dot_)com?subject=subscribe>
List-Post: <mailto:list(_at_)example(_dot_)com>
List-Owner: <mailto:listmom(_at_)example(_dot_)com> (Contact Person for
Help)
List-Archive: <mailto:archive(_at_)example(_dot_)com?subject=index%20list>
"When a UTF-8 mailto is used in a List-* header field, an
alt-address, if available, SHOULD immediately follow it."
That would make draft-duerst-mailto-bis, currently at -08, a
normative reference.
RFC 2369, RFC 2919, RFC 5504 and RFC 5336 should be normative references.
