Hi, in src/lib-smtp/smtp-address.c line 759 the localpart is compared with null_strcmp, which does not ignore the case. While this is the correct behavior (according to the RFC) it causes problems in real life. In my case the vacation notices are not sent, if someone writes to First.Last at ruhr-uni-bochum.de because :addresses contains (only) first.last at ruhr-uni-bochum.de....

...n is done using dovecot's lib-smtp (src/lib-smtp/smtp-address.h) smtp_address_equals() function, which returns smtp_address_cmp(.) == 0; smtp_address_cmp() does a case insensitive comparison of the domain parts (using null_strcasecmp()) and a case sensitive comparison of the local parts (using null_strcmp()) There is probably a good reason why the local parts comparison is case sensitive within smtp_address_cmp(), but having vacation rely on that function causes the problem described above. Is there any plan to fix that ? Regards

Hi, I came up with the following patch while trying to figure out a good solution for the situation described in Debian bug #871987[1]. In short, OpenSSL in Debian unstable has disabled TLSv1.0 and TLSv1.1 *by default*. That means that unless an application requests otherwise, only TLSv1.2 is supported. In the world of e-mail this is seemingly an issue, as there are still way too many old clients
