email should be case insensitive

Open PetrSnobelt opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Hello, I figured out that the email used for logging depends on uppercase and lowercase letters.

Is there any way how to disable this. I think email should be case insensitive.

Thank you Petr

I agree. Given that the underlying persistence (Redis) treats keys as case-sensitive, but emails are generally understood (by users, and by the actual email spec) to be case-insensitive, this gets us into several confusing situations.

Specifically, I think email addresses should be forced to lowercase by the registration code, at user signup / account creation. Similarly at login time (if you're using the email / password strategy)
