On vbulletin 3 theres a bug in the pm system that wont let you PM people who have upercase charactors in there username. I tryed it on my board and a stock vb3. When you try to pm somone it just says that the user does not exist.

Anyone have a fix for this? My thread at vbulletin.com was pretty much ignored.

Are you sure? The username system is not case sensitive, so typing in all lower case has always worked for me.

Did you post a thread or a bug report?

Its a bogus bug, there is a recent report in the bug tracker which freddie gives details about howto correct the problem with MySQL complied in different Charsets IIRC.
