I doubt you can change this via a Default or setting.
Are you using a fairly recent version of Outlook? And are talking about
Outlook or Outlook Express? Outlook used to have lots of
interoperability problems with the Internet, recent versions have
cleaned up allot.

According to RFC822 (section 3.4.7) your version of Outlook is clearly
in the wrong in this case:
When matching any other syntactic unit, case is to be ignored. For
example, the field-names "From", "FROM", "from", and even"FroM" are
semantically equal and should all be treated identically.

WOMailDelivery, from SOPE, looks like it uses "from". And I'm just
*assuming* that OGoWebMail uses that.
