For additional information, I have read the man page for addresses. *SLAP* I
should have done this first, sorry.
It says that case does matter in Qmail (as most of you know probably), yet
when I pipe mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] both get
delivered to my real account, [EMAIL PROTECTED] What am I missing? By
default is case sensitivity disabled for interoperability? I get the
impression that case does matter, yet I can't get it to fail.
Thanks-
Matt

How does Qmail deal with case in an email address? From Outlook at least,
case does not appear to matter, for example, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
[EMAIL PROTECTED] both deliver to me. Also, what is the official RFC
standard for case in an email address. I read in section 3.4.7 of RFC 822
that at least for the "from" field it does not matter. I have a bet that it
doesn't matter.... I have been told that so many times I have taken it as
truth, but have a co-worker who is sure Sendmail is case sensitive.
Thanks
