    Well, I have a display-name and I'm not afraid. If someone uses it
in my place, I think this will be detected soon. BTW, the Wikipedia
document says that the display-name should only be in ASCII. In fact,
I've often received emails with a display address entirely made of
Japanese Kanjis, or Cyrilic characters, which means that this standard
has been obsoleted by actual use for two decades at least.
