When searching for Chinese names in the "to:" field under Thunderbird, I see asserted_value_validate_normalize() not returning LDAP_SUCCESS in filter.c. This is because the "mail" attribute in core.schema is of type "IA5 String" but the Chinese name falls outside the character set.
No, it's because Thunderbird failed to convert the email address to form expected. It should have applied the "To Ascii" conversion as defined in the EIA and IDNA specs.
Do you mean RFC 3490 to 3492? Could you please give an exact reference to a spec which says something about the local part of e-mail addresses?
Ciao, Michael.
