I had the lower-case letters covered in other NEW_STREAM sections. The
[A-Z]* part was just to cover if somebody made a new volume with a
capital letter starting the name.
What I did to compensate for this apparent bug is move the
capital-letter processing to the llower-case sections just like you're
showing: [a-cA-C]*.

Mark,
That sounds right if your client is a *nix box. Did you try
[a-zA-Z]* in the Include file?
