EMail-addresses are case insensitive and what you see is
done by `rfc822-addresses', so there is no way to fix this
within BBDB.  However BBDB offers too much options for
configuration, among them a customized address extraction
function, so you might try  

(setq bbdb-extract-address-components-func
      'bbdb-extract-address-components)

But be aware this extraction function has problems it self,
to parse certain addresses correctly.

Probably you want to tell VM to match email-addresses case
insensitive.  See the docs on the variable
`vm-auto-folder-case-fold-search'.
