tangent, but you can’t send mail on ios with an idn because “the sender address was invalid”, despite it working in macos. i’ve read this is caused by a broken regex check. if any apple employees are reading please take a look

Does some other software (like the MUA) need to convert the IDN to punycode before submitting it to the OS?

There are so many quirks between the way Mail behaves on iOS vs Mac, its infuriating. At the core of it, if you are manually adding IMAP/SMTP/POP, both just need to get out of the way and stop trying to help. Very typical of Apple to think it knows better than you.
