Mail Internationalised Local-Part (MILP)

Even though, given IDNA now exists as a proposed standard, the main
issues relate to the local part, the issue under discussion is that of
internationalized mail addresses, not just internationalized
local-parts.

Restricting the disucssion to local-parts runs the risk of excluding
other potentially relevent issues.  For instance, one of the issues
that has been discussed on the IMAA list is whether full-width at
should be recognized in an internationalized mail address.  IMHO, the
charter shouldn't be framed in a way that is sufficiently narrow as to
render such questions out of scope.
