A rule is case-insensitive if it ends with an 'i' character after the end of
the regexp, like:
header SOME_THING From =~ /myname/i
It is not case-insensitive otherwise, as in:
header SOME_THING From =~ /myname/
I would guess in this case that we just plain forgot the /i on the end of
the rule, although there are some rules we deliberately make case sensitive
when you might think they should be otherwise. Usually that happens when
making it case insensitive will end up hitting a lot of ham we don't want
the rule to hit.
