Hi Julien, Thanks for the hint! My system is (now) Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. I found normalizeuid in the docs, which I set to 0. Still with the same result. I scanned the code a bit as well, I find such a patch in the Ubuntu distribution patches (cyrus-imapd-2.4.2-903-normalize-authorization-id.patch). If I understand the code, it is initialized with 0, and only if set to 1 if config says. I think now, the best solution would be to install a debug version somewhere and see which of the 68 tolower calls in the code performs my unwanted tolower and why. As I only have 20 mailboxes with UpperCase letters in them, and after testing I found that a combination of "rename user/CamelCase user/camelcase" plus "sam user/camelcase camelcase lrswipcda" plus some account changing in the database will fix my issue, - without any manual configuration steps for the users - still the rcpt to:CamelCase mails will get to the renamed account Thanks for all your help. I guess the next person who runs into this and reads this thread needs to debug a bit or study the code investing more time.
