How about

http://xn--8pru44h.xn--55qx5d/

I remember exchanging emails with them at least once.

Standard Thunderbird, Linux.
Mailer exim 4.0
Bind 9.4.0

I remember it worked with djbdns too.

No, I did not have a language tag.

There were no tricks besides using the Cesidian Root for DNS.
I guess the chinese used their native root.


Kind regards

In fact, it may be necessary to attach a language tag (defined in
RFC 4646 and 4647) to these addresses in order to make this fully
possible.


That would be a very bad idea. Email deals with scripts, not with
languages. What language should be attached to my name? (I'm french
but my name is german.) And to coca-cola.com?


I'm sure that many people are working on this problem,


Sure, specially in the Far East, demos of I18N software for email are
common but all use non-standard tricks, they do not interoperate and
they do not fallback gracefully when encountering an old email
gateway.
