well, after some more reading, I guess it's a bit different:

IMAP RFC3501 takes no position on case sensitivity in mailbox names. So, we can support either case sensitive or case insensitive mailbox names. Currently, mailboxes are case sensitive when using PostgreSQL, and case insensitive when using MySQL. This might not be what we want. We would probably like to have case sensitivity to be consistent, whichever database backend we use.

any opinions?

Ilja,

If you wan't RFC'ism, you should put code in the software to do the
comparison, not in the SQL, mysql is not case sensitive,. So on mysql
dbmail would not conform to the RFC in this case.

In DBMail 1.2.3 the queries were all defined in the backend driver. In
DBMail 2.0, the backend driver has become much smaller and simpler, and
most functionality has been moved to db.c, which is in use by all (read:

both) backends.

Anyway, your suggestions should work.

By the way, I don't think we should lowercase the mailboxes, as RFC 3501
takes no position on case-sensitivity of mailbox names, except for
"INBOX", which should always be case insensitive.

Case insensitivity is limited to aliases (including domain aliases) and
usernames, I guess.

If not,
lower(column)=lower("value%"), and
lower(column) like lower("value%")

should do the trick.

We can't use ILIKE, as it's not supported by MySQL. It's also not a part of SQL92, is it? I'll look for a way around this.

Probably a bug from being ported to postgres, as mysql is not case sensitive, but postgresql is.

As such, all comparisons in where clauses should be cast using lower()


on both sides of the comparison sign. Or in the case of LIKE, use

ILIKE.

I noticed that when dbmail checks for a delivery point, if the domain name does not match one listed in the aliases table case for case, it will bounced the mail with "so such user". Has this comparison always


been case sensitive?  For example, if [EMAIL PROTECTED] is in the aliases


table and then I get a mail address to [EMAIL PROTECTED], dbmail rejects it. Actually it will reject anything not spelled exactly as "example.com". This is the error message generated.

dbmail/smtp[31935]: bounce.c,bounce: sending 'no such user' bounce for


destination [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Is this a postfix problem, PostgreSQL problem, or a dbmail problem?
