We are currently running MX V3.1C with several mailing lists and file servers.
Some of the file servers are associated with mailing lists to restrict access.
It seems that for a user to be authorized to access such a file server the
from-address must agree exactly (i.e., case-sensitively) with the address on
the mailing list even if this has been specified with the /nocase option.
Is this a bug in MX MLF or is our MX/mailing lists/file servers set up
incorrectly?
