Postal services Gmail (owned by US corporation Google) and « Yandex » have begun to support fully Cyrillic Email address. That is, the client can now accept emails from any email address of the form « москва@москва.рф » . The rest of the services are not yet able to accept only e-mail domain zones, marked in Cyrillic (for example, « @ moskva.rf » ), and the name shall be indicated in Latin letters or numbers.
Director of “Russian Names” said Sergei Sharikov, that innovations can increase the popularity of Cyrillic domain names. He considers it a “revolutionary leap” in the development of the Cyrillic addressing domains and mail addresses
-. Cyrillic mail yet few people use, because the mail customers are just beginning to accept letters from these addresses, but now it starts to spread rapidly – says Sergey Sharikov. -. Only in the domain zone .rus, open from May of this year, already 11 thousand of registered names for their mail they are happy to will use Cyrillic fully address.
Unicode support development (character encoding standard, supports almost all existing written languages) in email-addresses worked created in 1986 Internet Engineering Task Force (Internet Engineering Task Force, IETF). Their achievements, he gave back in 2012. In 2014, Google was the first, who announced the use of the new standard email. However, according to developers – “Izvestia” interlocutors, – Until recently, this feature is for the Cyrillic alphabet in the left part of the email-addresses are simply not working.
Recently Cyrillic addresses standard adopted and the Russian company “Yandex» – in the company the exact date of call could not.
from the large Russian postal services of players of Russian domains function not only supports the company-mail Mail.ru Group.
Vice President and head of business unit « Mail and portal » in Mail.ru Group Anna Artamonov said that the company carefully study the solutions available on the market, and until they see that the Cyrillic addresses support « almost does not work. ” According Artamonova, when assessing the appropriateness of technological innovation in the first place should be stand user experience
-. From a technical point of view to implement the standard for Cyrillic email-addresses is easy, the problem is that the Cyrillic addresses support will work correctly only on the condition that it will make all postal services around the world, and this has not happened and is unlikely to happen, – Artamonov explains. – In addition, there is no developed practice be compatible with do not support the standard postal services. In the Russian segment has a single attempt, for example, a standard supported by a little-known service « Pismo.RF » . But, first, they are using an old version of the standard and is therefore not compatible with the same Gmail, which introduced support recently. Second, check the user in any case must enter additional nekirillichesky address and it is here that then actually goes letters to all mail services. In such circumstances, rush to the official support standard is not necessary.
Unicode character support national language actively is developing in China. For example, CN NIC (Chinese analogue of the Coordination network TLD center Internet in Russia) sponsored the development support of the new standards in the Chinese popular open mail server Postfix.
Home specialist of the application services « Technical center online » Igor Lidin says that support unicode (not only the Cyrillic alphabet, but all languages) should be developed and promoted throughout the world, because it is important that technology nearer to the usual to users who want to communicate on the Internet in their native language
-. Internet was created so long ago, that did not take into account the diversity of languages on the planet, and the major protocols (including those who are involved in the email) developed without the slightest regard for the internationalization – Lidin says. – In the process of development in them added props and supports, in one degree or another to solve problems multi-lingual support. A new set of standards for email – step forward, quite radically adding support for unicode characters in many places where they were previously prohibited
Director of the National Domain Coordination Center the Internet, Andrei Vorobyov said that the lack of support for e-mail clients fully Cyrillic addresses were the only limiting factor for the development of Cyrillic domains
-. The domain .rf almost 900 thousand domain names, we have both zones and .Flowers .moskva, have .bel Belarusian Cyrillic domain, Ukrainian domain Ukr; the development of all of them was restrained by the possibility of full use of mail, – said Andrei Vorobyov. – In general conversations support major email services such addresses underway since 2010 to speak of the term of one to two years for the introduction of the possibility, but, as we see, all greatly moved.
in the press-service of the company “Yandex” has indicated that they do not are planning to open the registration of Cyrillic logins in « Yandex.Mail » , and use the domain « yandeks.rf » to the mailbox.
– The world’s largest services in the registration of new users do not take as your email address non-standard formats mail – comment on “Yandex” in the press-service. – We do not want to provide users with “broken” address, and we believe that the use of local languages in the e-mail can disrupt communication between the users will establish linguistic boundaries and can disrupt Internet connectivity <. / p>
Google has quickly comment on the situation failed.
