      In windows event log monitoring, the parameter <source>:

      eventlog[name,<regexp>,<severity>,<source>,<eventid>,<maxlines>,<mode>]
      

      Matches case insensitive. Seems that this is done on purpose:
      https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/src/zabbix_agent/eventlog.c#1040-1047

      Example of this would look like this:

      eventlog[System,,Error,"^MYTEST$",,,skip]
      

      and all messages like these are matched:

      MYTEST Error 999 This is a test 
      MYTest Error 999 This is a test 
      MYTesT Error 999 This is a test 
      

      Please include this detail in the documentation.
