Hi,

The "Alternative addresses" option is case-sensitive,
FQ-email-addresses are case-INsensitive.

Is this know?
If so; Why is it not fixed yet in 4.10 ?

TTYL.

	Can you clarify.  I know that the domain portion of the e-mail
address, is case insesitive, but the user portion can be case sensitive.
And, as such, I would think it would be ``wrong'' to make the user portion
case sensitive.  It may be ``nice'' to be able to turn on, or off case
sensitivity in terms of the user portion, but I'd think it would be wrong
to assume case insensitivity, even though in most cases the user portion
is also case insesitive.  

> Is this know?

	I'm sure that the Pine development team is well aware of the
appropriate standards, they may not know that the domain name portion is
case sensitive, if that is the case.  

> If so; Why is it not fixed yet in 4.10 ?

	Well, if it is a ``violation'' of the standard, then yes it should
be fixed, and probably hasn't been because they are not aware that it is.
If, it is in the user name portion that MAY be case insesitive (but isn't
required to be), then it is simply a lack of a way to turn on that
insesitivity.

Sorry was my fault, well partialy at least!
It seems to work on the next start-up of pine.
This is odd cause there is no msg stating that clearly as far as I
remember.

Sorry for the wrong posting.

BUT...!
It doesn't handle single names.
I can't use just "osman" and get:
"[email-masked]" and
"[email-masked]" and
"[email-masked]" etc...
recognized, they all point to me on the SAME machine...

Is there a way?
TTYL.
