Yes, the search is deliberately case sensitive. Note, however, that
email address part is (also deliberately) lowercased before address line
is added to the list... 

This has suited me good so far... (maybe I need to add this to the doc)...

...(or change the behaviour it if is too confusing / more inconvenient
that convenient).

If you want to experiment with case insensitive search you could check the
line 35:

	print grep { index($_, $search_str) >= 0 } <I>;

Change this to

	print grep { /\Q$search_str\E/oi } <I>;

(without \Q and \E you also get regular expression matches)
