Hi there, (This is a re-posted message from our development mailing list.)
In our IRC channel, it was suggested to look at RFC 2821, section 2.4, quoted as saying: "However, exploiting the case sensitivity of mailbox local-parts impedes interoperability and is discouraged." The problem statement is as follows: The recipient is u...@domain.de, and while the mailbox name is "u...@domain.de", or even "user", the mail bounced. Not completely aware of the full implications and/or codebase, I wanted to put the topic on switching the default to be relaxed in the case of case sensitivity out there for discussion. Long story short; the proposal is to ship with a default lmtp_downcase_rcpt of 1.
