The actual lookups are both case-sensitive. I am not aware of any kind
of DBM keyed lookup implementation that is case-insensitive.
I suspect that in the background to this lies the method of building
your NDBM/CDB files. If you use exim_dbmbuild to build the NDBM file, by
default it lower-cases the input keys, unless you give it the -nolc
option. If you are using it to look up local local parts, with
locally_caseless true (the default) then you will be getting
caselessness at a higher level.
