index is not used because you have leading % in the like predicate.

I've created a function index for lower(column_name). However the query
does
a like comparison rather than equality so the index isn't used. Is there a
way to create a function index for this?
Here's the index and query:
create index fx1_auth_users
on auth_users (lower(current_email)
tablespace app01_midx ;
select current_email from auth_users
where lower(current_email) like '%datsit.com%' ;
Thanks much,
Suzy
