Can I toss in a case which I would need to be covered:
We have some users who have upper case letters in their usernames (a legacy which
would be a pain to have to remove). There are no instances where two usernames
differ only in case and would not let that happen. We wish to have caseless e-mail
addresses. So, given a user with a username of ANOther, we would wish to deliver a
message addressed to another or ANOTHER, etc. to that user.
The way we cope at present is to have locally_caseless=false to preserve the upper
case for the usernames, then a director does a lower-case lookup on a dbm file which
contains an entry for each user like another:ANOther.
Please take this need into consideration.
Phil.
