[SOLVED] Why are logins (email/username) case sensitive?

I noticed that when logging in email/username are case sensitive. I found this Jira Ticket… but I just wanted to confirm… the reason why logins are case sensitive is because if logins were case insensitive, the AD/LDAP authentication setup could break?

@marcchang - I think some LDAP set ups can have case sensitive logins.

We have a ticket here though to fix it for email login:

@lfbrock Thanks! I was looking around to see if there was a ticket, but I couldn’t find it. :slight_smile:
