bytea case sensitivity

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

We are testing dbmail on postgresql, which uses a bytea column to store
the messages. Because of this searching through messages is case sensitive.

Does anyone know of a way to make it not case-sensitive, either by
changing the data type (obviously without breaking the current
functionality) or a Select Rule or any other method?

Thank you
