------------------------------------
Summary: Failure when JAMES_MAIBOX.user_name and
JAMES_USER.user_name do not match case
Key: JAMES-2974
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-2974
Project: James Server
Issue Type: Bug
Components: mailbox
Affects Versions: 3.3.0
Reporter: Jerry Malcolm
More issues with case-sensitivity. I migrated from v3b5 on Windows to 3.4 on
Linux. I have mailboxes that are 15+ years old. In the JAMES_MAILBOX table,
the user_name in several random records have capital letters which don't match
the case of the JAMES_USER user_name field. There are two symptoms I'm
encountering:
1) No mail has been placed in mailboxes with case mismatches since I migrated
2) mailboxes with case mismatches do not appear at all in the imap folder list
responses.
I have no clue how/why some of the mailbox user_name fields are mixed case.
Some of these mailboxes go back to James 2.3. But for whatever reason, they
exist. I can simply go into the database and force all of the names to lower
case. But unless lowercase is enforced, more mixed case names could appear,
and we're back to the same problem.
I recommend that all comparisons to the usersRepository names become
case-insensitive searches.
