Good question - the vacation spec is not clear on that. The RFC2821 spec actually says that the local part of an address (to the left of the @) is case-sensitive, whilst the domain part (to the right of the @) is not. Thus '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' are not the same. Of course it turns out that many implementations do treat those as the same, so there does need to be a way to handle that in vacation. The SIEVE base-spec gets around this by allowing comparisons (with either case-sensitive or case-insensitive comparators) against the local or domain part of an address separately if so desired. I will bring this matter up on the sieve list as it needs to be cleared up wrt vacation.
