The note justified it with "reset silently fails when somebody types a capital
letter". That stopped being true: both the login form and the reset form on the
site lowercase the address before sending, the app does the same in
normalizeEmail, and all nine stored addresses are lowercase already. A dashboard
that states a fixed bug as current makes the owner distrust a working feature.
What is still true, and is the actually useful thing to know while standing at
this table, is that the endpoint answers "sent" whether or not the address
matched, on purpose, so a failed reset is undiagnosable from the outside.
The second note is today's lesson, which cost an hour: a reset the owner sends
to his own address is delivered by Proton as his own outgoing mail, so it sits
in All Mail and never appears in the inbox. He is the only person this affects,
because he is the only recipient who is also the sender.
