A recent post to one of the uk.* groups has highlighted a problem with the
case sensitivity or otherwise of the keyword "poster" in the
Followup-To-header.
At least two user agents failed to followup to "Poster", and there are
probably many more. However, according to a strict reading of ouir present
draft, that word is case-insensitive (because of RFC 2234). So questions:
1. Is it supposed to be case insensitive?
2. Do you want me to make it so in the draft (it is easily done)?
3. If so, do we want any SHOULD/MUST be liberal in accepting "Poster"?
