Universal Acceptance (UA) is the state where all domain names and all email addresses can be used in all applications. With (a) the introduction of domain names in different scripts, (b) the introduction of new and longer top-level domains, and © the availability of email addresses in different scripts, not all application developers and organizations have kept their software and systems up-to-date with these changes to the domain name system. Promoting and improving Universal Acceptance is necessary to provide better access to a more diverse Internet user base, offer more choice for registration and support competition in the industry.
