Correct, *if* the client actually displays punycode instead of IDNs.
With IDNs, you can easily miss the URL is to a look-alike domain.  With
punycode displayed, it is obvious an IDN was used, but converted to show
the punycode version.  Not all clients (that support IDNs) will show the
punycode version.

Tbird has Firefox code.  Firefox can display punycode *if* you go into
about:config to change network.IDN_show_punycode = true.  I can only
assume the Firefox setting might apply to Tbird, but I'm not sure that
is true for hyperlinks within the body of an e-mail versus having Tbird
render a web site using Firefox code.  Is the above punycode setting
available in Tbird's advanced editor?
