The IMAP rfc is completely neutral in this regard. With one exception:
INBOX must be treated as case-insensitive. For all other mailboxes it is
up to the implementors of servers.

For DBMail: all mailboxes are treated as case-insensitive, except when
they contain non-ascii parts as represented by modified base64 (utf7).
Those parts are treated verbatim, while the ascii parts of those
mailboxes are again treated case-insensitive.
