Just my 2 cents.
I am 99% sure that emails are supposed to be case INsensitive (just as domain
names are). You can easily check it by looking at this email's "To:" field :-)
I think that original case of the address should be preserved, but matching
should be case-insensitive. the easierst way to do it is
String.equalsIgnoreCase(String);
