What part of the email address is this going to lowercase? Only the domain
name is case agnostic.

That is my understanding of RFC, too.  Let's see where this mail goes to
find out how much more lenient the real world is ;-).

Many email providers/servers are lenient when it comes to case in the 
local part of an email address (after all, they control the 
interpretation) but not every provider/server is and the RFC is VERY 
clear on this issue.
