Email address can be unicode (.Net2.0)

[Parwej Ahamad]

Hi, Email address can be unicode like : Национа@аци.com (This russina Cyrillic chars) Problem is, I am using System.Net.Mail namespace in our project. When i am creating the email address object

Message.From = new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress(from.Address, from.Name);

then it's throwing an error: "The specified string is not in the form required for an email address"

Use other overload which has encoding. (String, String, Encoding) [^]

Hi Navaneeth, This encoding defines for fromName (DisplayName) not for email address. For name it is working fine. I am asking about the Email Address.

Well, I am not sure internationalization in email addresses are practical. Here[^] is the RFC which explains internationalization. Try reading it.
