I also hit a bug on myself when not all accounts matched the email. I capitalised first-letter on some of them and not on anothers. Luckily, i only needed to identify to a second wiki to merge the full second block.
This is correct rfc behaviour, the user name part of the email address must be left unchanged, only the system storing it can perform case-transformations on it, as opposed to the host, which should be lower case, but as most email providers are cese-insensitive (is anyone case-sensitive?)
Per the spec: LHSs of mailbox names have case sensitivity that is implementation-dependent and must be treated as case-sensitive.
RHSs of mailbox names are -- these days -- domain names, and domain names are case insensitive by their spec.
RFC 2822 and 1136, I think.
