I would like pattern matching to be case sensitive. There are some antispam services (e.g., Postini) that rely on capital letters on user defined fields in the email header (those starting with "X-"). An example: http://spam.acm.org/public/filters/faq/postini_transf1.html Don't know if standard fields in the message headers can be capitalized in different ways, but it will certainly be useful to allow case-matching at least as an optional feature. On the other hand, Unix users are accustomed to use the right capitalization for commands, filenames, and so on... ;-) Just a wish...
