| I do read Chinese, but I am not a good translator.  In the meantime, you might want to try google.com/translate. The email will read pretty strangely after the google translation, but at least you will get the idea if the email is important or not. |

| LOL! True. You don't need a translation of the email you got in Chinese. If they really need the domain, they will send you an email in English.
