Incorporating other character sets without deep technical

How do I type chinese characters? I can't. So I can't write mail to
someone whose email address contains non-ASCII characters if I don't
already have the address in electronic form (e.g. within a webpage).
Right.
And, if a mailto URL is within a webpage with a chinese character
anchor, it does not matter whether a mail address in the URL
consists of pure ASCII characters or not.
It's worth nothing that my computer could handle the address if I can't.
You properly understand that the current ASCII DNS is already
fully internationalized.
