Domain names aren't case-sensitive.  Ever.

If this actually happened, it's either Thunderbird's fault or the fault of a local DNS server that was very broken.

The original summary for this bug was longer than 255 characters, and so it was truncated when Bugzilla was upgraded. The original summary was:

Reporter, does the issue still occur in the latest supported 2.0.0.x / Shredder trunk nightlies?

(1.5.0.x is now end-of-life and the latest supported 2.0.0.x is 2.0.0.16)
