Description

The 'email' field of the lost password page (account/lost_password) is case-sensitive. However, email addresses are generally treated as case-insensitive.

Thus if an for email for a Redmine user is stored as John.Doe@example.com, but John Doe types john.doe@example.com into the 'email' filed of the Lost password page, he is told "Unknown user."
