RFC 5321 explicitly discourages exploiting the case sensitivity of the
local part of the address, and makes it fairly clear that it's only
requiring you to treat it as case sensitive because it's possible that
some broken smtp server somewhere really does want to deliver mail for
"smith" and "Smith" to different people and thus everyone else has to
keep preserving case when sending messages. I don't think any
reputable mail server will actually do so.
