It reads:

     CC : constant String := "CC";

But for consistency with RFC5322 shouldn't it read:

     CC : constant String := "Cc";

I know the RFC doesn't really bother with case sensitivity, but since
"Cc" is used exclusively in 5322, it might be better to err on the safe
side in gnatcoll-email.ads, especially considering that there might be a
lot of procmail filters out there that are specifically looking for "Cc"
and not "CC".

:o)

They certainly shouldn't, and I believe procmail is case insensitive
anyway, so no worry.
I receive about 200 emails a day, and I believe at leat 95% of them
use "CC", from the quick check I just did.

Ah yes, I just checked, and you are absolutely right.

Well, I did say it was a minor nitpick!  :D
