Default Godaddy goes IDN ..

Ok, so it's a month old:

The most interesting bit for me is in red .. does this mean you can have a unicode email address or just that their email client can display unicode in the body of the email?

Go Daddy Allows Domains to Be Registered in 100 Languages

The web is becoming more universal, and Go Daddy is helping it on it’s way.

Now imagine how much easier it would be to get your message across by communicating in your target's preferred, native language. GoDaddy.com is helping make the Web truly universal with Internationalized Domain Names, or IDNs.

An IDN is a Web address expressed in a native language, and it's helping to revolutionize the Internet. In the past, it has been difficult to translate western character domain names to other languages because popular scripts, such as Arabic, Chinese or Cyrillic, contain characters that were not previously supported by Web browsers.

GoDaddy.com has made Internationalized Domain Names available in more than 100 native languages for .com and .net domain names. Go Daddy also plans to make Internationalized Domain Names available in select languages for .info later this month.

Registering an Internationalized Domain Name with GoDaddy.com gives consumers the chance to build a complete Web presence in most any language. That's because many of the GoDaddy.com products - including Go Daddy Web-based Email and Web hosting packages - support non-Western language-based characters.

"GoDaddy.com is committed to making it easier for consumers all over the world to navigate domain names," GoDaddy.com CEO & Founder Bob Parsons said. "With Internationalized Domain Names, users can find what they need in their own language."

GoDaddy.com Email offers virus protection, spam filtering, phishing fraud protection and 256-bit encryption at no additional charge. GoDaddy.com is the world's top paid host provider - all its packages feature unparalleled 24x7 Customer Support, world-class data centers and a 99.9 percent uptime guarantee.

Don't know about GoDaddy but this might be of interest to some of you.

Unicode and e-mail - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Unicode support is coming. I note that WinZip now supports Unicode:

Does yahoo mail support it? Gmail doesn't. Any others like hinet?

That will be WONDERFUL when they all do!
