Hi,

the Leafnode programs handle newgroup names case insensitively, as
indicated by RFC 977.

Both of my upstream servers don't like uppercase characters in group
names; neither in NNTP commands, nor in Article headers. (But I did
receive articles with uppercase characters in Newsgroups: headers from
them.)

Is there an upcoming draft which considers group names case sensitive,
or are those servers not RFC compliant?

Stefan
