Is it possible to send emails via Thunderbird to addresses with UTF8 character left of the @ sign, like for instance mü[email protected]

After hitting "Send" I get the error message "The local Part of the email address ... contains non-ASCII characters. This is not yet supported..."

Can I change a setting to allow this?

After some quick research, I don't think there's anything you can do "until TB supports RFC 6532":

If you have a gmail account, I think it will work if you send from the Gmail website.
