No, that's not what 2821 says.  The RFC defines the FQDN part of an email
address to be case-insensitive, and says that the treatment of case of
local-part is up to the receiving system, and so intermediate MTAs must
preserve the case of local-part.

It then recommends that MTA implementors treat local-part as case insensitive
when they are the final destination MTA, but does not require this.
