So what happens if we just canonicalize the domain-part to (say) lower

do the job reasonably well.

Sounds good to me.  The COMPARATOR argument would only apply to the
localpart of the address.

This makes me nervous, but I can't quite pin down why.  There are cases
like
        if address :contains :all "from" "andrew"
but that's just bad scripting.

I don't see a good reason that COMPARATOR can't apply to the whole
address, it's just useless on the right-side.  Right?
