Here is an > excerpt from my personal courier setup notes: Right, so I don't understand either! :-( It doesn't seem that delivery is exactly following what you describe in your notes. Here's an example of my test setup: Account: [EMAIL PROTECTED] pertinent authmysqlrc setup: MYSQL_USER_TABLE users MYSQL_HOME_FIELD home MYSQL_DEFAULTDELIVERY delivery entry in mysql table: home = '/var/homes/321.net/te/test' delivery = '|/usr/lib/courier/bin/sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED]' The directory /var/homes/321.net/te/test does NOT have any courier* or .maildrop* files. When a message is sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED], the ONLY thing that happens is it gets delivered to /var/homes/321.net/te/test/Maildir/new. Nothing else... no delivery instructions are taken from authmysqlrc. Can anyone provide suggestions on how to further debug this?
