What are you trying to achieve?
Are you looking for specific words in a message or subject? In that case, it
is not case sensitive.

I can tell you of at least one Outlook 2007 rule condition that IS NOT
case-sensitive: "sender is in [specified] Address Book".

As is my habit, I entered a particular contact's email address in lower
case (call the contact "My Name" and the address "mn...@work.com") and
saved that contact in a named address book (call it "ABC"). I've also
created a rule that acts on all messages from contacts in the address
book "ABC", moving them to a folder "ABC".

I noticed today that a message from My Name was shown in the message
header as sent from "MN...@work.com". Regardless, the rule worked as per
usual.
