Authenticate with mail accounts containing internationalized domain name #882

Open sfkeller opened 6 years ago

sfkeller commented 6 years ago

Currently it seems not possible to authenticate with mail accounts containing internationalized domain name, like e.g. somename@xn--ko-wla.pl. While fixing this, test also top-level domains with more than 2 chars, like .info.

I wanted to add that I received the confirmation e-mail on my IDN address and successfully logged in, so the bug is not critical, it's just very confusing.

sfkeller commented 6 years ago

You wrote, "it considers my e-mail to be invalid": So it indicated it as invalid but it worked nevertheless?

kocio-pl commented 6 years ago

Yes.

@kocio-pl How does OSMaxx indicate that it "considers [your] email address to be invalid"?

If you mean the warning message:

Your email has not been validated. Please check your inbox and validate your email address or resend the verification email.

... that message just means that you haven't clicked link in the confirmation email, yet. (We should probably rephrase that message. It is very confusing.)
