Hello, all.
I am trying to use Maildrop to filter incoming mail, but it appears that
the ESMTP server is not using it to deliver mail at all. Here's the
evidence...
When I send the text of a test email directly to Maildrop:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cat test_email.txt | maildrop
maildrop: Unable to create a dot-lock.
The spam filter gets invoked just fine, as seen in /var/log/maillog:
=====================
Jun 1 09:45:07 odin spamd[22608]: connection from odin [127.0.0.1] at
port 38271
Jun 1 09:45:07 odin spamd[22608]: info: setuid to root succeeded
Jun 1 09:45:07 odin spamd[22608]: Still running as root: user not
specified with -u, not found, or set to root. Fall back to nobody.
Jun 1 09:45:07 odin spamd[22608]: processing message (unknown) for root:99.
Jun 1 09:45:07 odin spamd[22608]: identified spam (7.6/5.0) for root:99
in 0.3 seconds, 520 bytes.
Jun 1 09:45:07 odin spamd[22608]: result: Y 7 -

scantime=0.3,size=520,mid=(unknown),autolearn=no
=====================
I don't know why the message fails to be delivered - it's probably
trying to deliver to root's $HOME/Maildir or something, since I ran the
test as root. In any case, I can tell that Maildrop is invoking
SpamAssassin from the log file. Anyway, so far so good.
However, when I send the same message through sendmail:
cat test_email.txt | /usr/lib/courier/bin/sendmail
The maillog is completely different! It shows only messages from
courierd and courierlocal, nothing from Maildrop or spamd...
=====================
Jun 1 09:48:55 odin courierd: newmsg,id=0000FAEC.429DBCC7.00000FC0:

Jun 1 09:48:55 odin courierd:

inprogress=0
=====================
The message never gets processed by the spam filter, and just gets
dropped into the Inbox as usual. :(
I notice that the output there includes "module=local" -- shouldn't it
say something about Maildrop instead? I need to make sure I've got
everything set up to invoke Maildrop correctly...
=====================
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# grep DEFAULTDELIVERY /etc/courier/courierd
##NAME: DEFAULTDELIVERY:0
DEFAULTDELIVERY="|/usr/lib/courier/bin/maildrop"
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cat /etc/courier/maildrop
/usr/lib/courier/bin/maildrop
=====================
As far as I can tell from the docs, this is all that's necessary to
enable Maildrop processing, but it's not happening for me. Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance,
-benton
