My argument was not for case-sensitive emails. It was for:

- different emails
- local parts with or without extension

All treated lowercase. Like real world

I do not understand this discussion. RFCs for SMTP. ok. That is one point. Just 
think about paper mail. Would you expect that a letter arrives at your home, if 
people write you name in different ways? Yes of course! :-) So why this 
theoretical discussion about things that nobody on earth does use. 

If I answer your mail here and I write [email protected], do you expect it to 
arrive or do you say this is somebody else? I bet you expect the mail has to 
arrive in your mailbox and nowhere else. No matter what the RFCs say. You 
expect this mail to land at your mailbox.

So this is the reason why I say, local part for PGP and SMIMEA MUST be 
lowercase looked up.

N.B. sorry for my english. May sound harsh. Isn’t meant so.
