I tried to send a message to a address with a non ascci character (valse‑email@icscards.nl) I will get a pop-up with the message that the mail could not be send for it contains a non ascci character. The character - is used in this address. How to solve it?

Written as you show it here:

valse‑email@icscards.nl

it's hard to see what Thunderbird is objecting to.

Did you type this yourself, or copy it from somewhere else?

I am certain that the hyphen is fine in an email address. The question is that if you copied it from somewhere else, it may not be a regular hyphen, but maybe an em-dash or en-dash (or similar).

I believe the first three of these would give your error. Only the last one uses a regular hyphen:

  1. valse−email@icscards.nl
  2. valse—email@icscards.nl
  3. valse–email@icscards.nl
  4. valse-email@icscards.nl

This page: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822#page-15 shows under "3.2.4. Atom" that the hyphen is explicitly permitted as part of the "local part" of an email address.

I copied the address from a site. I think that that's why it had gone wrong. I thought the minus sign was the reason. Retype the email address solved the problem Thanks.
