Progress!

That definitely sounds like a bug in the forum software.

AFAICT the user ID isn't case sensitive so in the forum database there shouldn't be two accounts with the same spelling but different case. There should be just one account. It will be very easy for someone with access to the database to check that. It's a fairly trivial matter to code things that ignore case in European languages, but if the software is to cope with e.g. Asian character sets too it's a different matter and bugs can be expected. This forum software has earned a bit of a bad rep in that area.
