---------------------------
Summary: Mail address matching does not take case into account
Key: WHIMSY-168
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-168
Project: Whimsy
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sebb
Assignee: Sebb
In theory, the local part of an email address is case-significant whilst the
hostname part as case-blind.
In practice, many email systems don't distinguish names which differ only by
case (and the RFC recommends against doing so). Whimsy should ignore case when
matching email addresses.
However it would be useful to return the actual case used where the email
addresses are displayed.
In the case of email list names, these should always be displayed as lower-case.
