Either Alice can't connect (if the other > domain doesn't exist) or she ends up talking to someone else (if the > other domain does exist). I'm sorry, but your example doesn't work. In nameprep, when doing Unicode Normalization, U+00B5 is mapped to U+03BC. So these will be the same domain name, and have the same ACE label. roozbeh
