Do not use account names with upercase letters in them. They will not
work with any mta. A standard part of mail processing is to change the
e-mail address to all lower case. That way, e-mail addresses are not
case sensitive. (Just like URLs...) You realy do not want case
sensitive e-mail addresses any way. There are too many people out there
that would be bouncing message otherwise.
