Jonathan,

I'm no maildrop whiz, but what happens when you change the permissions on
your ~/.mailfilters directory:

 : garbage vmail # ls -laF
 : total 12
 : drwxr-xr-x   15 vmail    vmail         496 Apr  1 06:47 ./
 : drwxr-xr-x    5 root     root          144 Mar 20 20:23 ../
 : -rw-------    1 vmail    vmail          44 Apr  2 03:16 .mailfilter
 : drw-------    2 vmail    vmail         120 Apr  2 01:33 .mailfilters/
 : drwxr-xr-x    2 vmail    vmail         264 Mar 28 15:55 .razor/
 : drwx------    2 vmail    vmail          48 Mar 30 07:06 .spamassassin/
 : drwxr-x---    3 vmail    vmail          80 Mar 31 23:40 capitolgarage.com/

Note that there is no "x" for the .mailfilters directory and user vmail.

Try the following:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] chmod 0700 .mailfilters

And see if that works....here's the snippet from Chapter 22, section 2 of
the O'Reilly Power Tools book which covers directory permissions.

"""
Suppose you have read access to a directory, but you do not have execute
access to the files in the directory. You can still read the directory, or
inode (1.22) information for that file, as returned by the stat(2) system
call. That is, you can see the file's name, permissions, size, access
times, owner and group, and number of links. You cannot read the contents
of the file.
"""
