Directory find in small and capitals

Directory find in small and capitals
I've a very trivial thing bothering me. I'm rather new in scripting so I'll keep asking stupid questions.
Here is small script that does backup of mails.
---
for i in `cat /maildir.dir`
do
echo $i
maildir=`echo $i|sed 's@^./usr/@@'`
for j in $i/*
do
[ -d "$j/backup" ] && {
st="`find $j/backup -name "[0-9]*" -type f -print|head -1|wc -l`"
.....
It searches for mails in backup folder of all the users. Once in a while a user will use capital letters ('BACKUP' or 'Backup') in the name. How do I make sure that all sorts of such names must be included in my backup thingy?

vgcfgbackup
VGCFGBACKUP(8) System Manager's Manual VGCFGBACKUP(8) NAME
vgcfgbackup - backup volume group descriptor area SYNOPSIS
vgcfgbackup [-d|--debug] [-f|--file filename] [-h|--help] [--ignorelockingfailure] [-P|--partial] [-v|--verbose] [VolumeGroupName...] DESCRIPTION
vgcfgbackup allows you to backup the metadata of your volume groups. If you don't name any volume groups on the command line, all of them will be backed up. In a default installation, each volume group gets backed up into a separate file bearing the name of the volume group in the directory /etc/lvm/backup. You can write the backup to an alternative file using -f. In this case if you are backing up more than one volume group the filename is treated as a template, and %s gets replaced by the volume group name. NB. This DOESN'T backup user/system data in logical volume(s)! Backup /etc/lvm regularly too. OPTIONS
See lvm for common options. SEE ALSO
