> In theory, the local part of an email address is case-significant whilst the
> hostname part as case-blind.
> In practice, many email systems don't distinguish names which differ only by
> case (and the RFC recommends against doing so). Whimsy should ignore case
> when matching email addresses.
> However it would be useful to return the actual case used where the email
> addresses are displayed.
> In the case of email list names, these should always be displayed as
> lower-case.
