Not really, no; but this will depend upon where the message is being delivered to. The docs state: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch44.html#SECID230 "Exim preserves the case of local parts of addresses, but by default it uses a lower-cased form when it is routing, because on most Unix systems, usernames are in lower case and case-insensitive routing is required." In other words, your system would *by default* do what you want it to do. > What should I do? > Right now, anything that isn't a valid username gets rejected > as it should. > > exim4, cyrus21 I believe this is the key - Cyrus.
