Subject: Why case-sensitive for virtual hosts ?
From: Daniel Woods (dwoodsucalgary.ca)

I just discovered that Postfix 19991231 is case-sensitive
when parsing through the virtual file for virtual hosts.
If I send mail to wwwprogrammer.ca or wwwPrograMMer.ca
(my system hostname), then they both get through using
relay=local). If I send to wwwjazzebelle.com, it works
fine by sending it to dwoodsprogrammer.ca (relay=local).
However, if I send to wwwJazzebelle.com, I get

Oct 29 23:33:53 programmer postfix/smtpd[12631]:
    reject: RCPT from mserve1.acs.ucalgary.ca[136.159.34.51]:
    554 <wwwJazzebelle.com>: Recipient address rejected:
    Relay access denied; from=<dwoodsucalgary.ca> to=<wwwJazzebelle.com>

Key point is that I sent it with upper 'J' instead of lower 'j'.
Why is postfix case-sensitive for virtual hosts but not local ?
I saw no options for this behaviour, so how do I fix this ?

Thanks... Dan.
