You remember incorrectly ;-) The local part of an address (before the @ sign) is case-sensitive (with the exception of postmas...@example.com) Everything to the right of the @ is indeed case insensitive, but everything to the left might be case sensitive, depending on local policy. This means you must preserve the case of everything to the left of the @ sign. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
