I agree - people never give their email addresses stating which letters
are uppercase or lowercase. I can't see any reasonable use for them
being case sensitive.
(I actually used the case sensitivity as a "feature" - my shared SPAM
and HAM folders are upper case, this means that no-one could mail it
directly, only copy/move mail to it from their client, thus preserving
the headers etc.)
Cheers,
