Hello all:

I'm using Postfix as my MTA, Courier as my POP with LDAP lookup for
authentication, and with Maildrop supposedly transporting between the
two.  Postfix is working properly, as is Courier.  But I can't seem to
get Maildrop configured correctly.  I am intending to host mail for my
corporate people who do not have a local UNIX account on this machine.

This is the error I get in mail.log:

Jul 15 01:19:34 server postfix/pipe[30047]: A19497FE2: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
relay=maildrop, delay=10, status=bounced (user unknown. Command output:
Invalid user specified. )

My /etc/courier/userdb is thus:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]   mail=/path/user/

My postfix master.cf uses:

flags=R user=courier argv=/usr/local/bin/maildrop -d [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What else am I missing here?

You are missing a valid userdb entry. A valid userdb entry contains the account's home directory, the numeric userid, and the numberic groupid.
