Abstract Abstract
The Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP) does not natively support The Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP) does not natively support
internationalized email addresses because the specifications for internationalized email addresses because the specifications for
these addresses did not exist when EPP was developed. This document these addresses did not exist when EPP was developed. This document
describes a command-response extension that adds support for describes a command-response extension that adds support for
associating an additional email address with an EPP contact object. associating an additional email address with an EPP contact object.
That additional email address can be either an internationalized That additional email address can be either an internationalized
email address or an all-ASCII address. email address or an all-ASCII address.

8. Implementation Status 8. Security Considerations
Note to RFC Editor: Please remove this section and the reference to
RFC 7942 [RFC7942] before publication.
This section records the status of known implementations of the
protocol defined by this specification at the time of posting of this
Internet-Draft, and is based on a proposal described in RFC 7942
[RFC7942]. The description of implementations in this section is
intended to assist the IETF in its decision processes in progressing
drafts to RFCs. Please note that the listing of any individual
implementation here does not imply endorsement by the IETF.
Furthermore, no effort has been spent to verify the information
presented here that was supplied by IETF contributors. This is not
intended as, and must not be construed to be, a catalog of available
implementations or their features. Readers are advised to note that
other implementations may exist.
According to RFC 7942 [RFC7942], "this will allow reviewers and
working groups to assign due consideration to documents that have the
benefit of running code, which may serve as evidence of valuable
experimentation and feedback that have made the implemented protocols
more mature. It is up to the individual working groups to use this
information as they see fit".

Organization: Verisign Inc.
Name: Verisign EPP SDK
Description: The Verisign EPP SDK includes both a full client
implementation and a full server stub implementation of draft-ietf-

As email address is often a primary end user contact, and an invalid As an email address is often a primary end user contact, an invalid
email address may put communication with the end user at risk when email address may put communication with the end user at risk when
such contact is necessary. In case of an invalid domain name in the such contact is necessary. In case of an invalid domain name in the

To reduce the risk of the use of invalid domain names in email techniques. To reduce the risk of the use of invalid domain names in
addresses, registries SHOULD validate the domain name syntax in email addresses, registries SHOULD validate the domain name syntax in
provided email addresses and validate whether the domain name the provided email addresses and validate whether the domain name
