But I don't want it to be case-sensitive. I've had a situation where the
list name is "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", and the "public name of this list" is
"List". If I send a message to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" it will be posted, but if
I send it to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", it will give me the "implicit destination"
error. I don't think that this is sensible behavior. This also sounds to
me like what Marian was attempting to describe, although she might not have
realized that the "public name" was not the same case as the address she
sent to.
