I checked, and I do have /usr/lib/courier/var/spool with the "filters" 
and "allfilters" directory belonging to courier:courier
I have not modified this so I'm convinced this was installed by the 
default options.
Is there a file somewhere to edit to tell it where it should look for 
the spool folder?
I tried moving filters and allfilters in 
/usr/lib/courier/var/spool/courier but that did not help either.

Thanks again for the help
Cheers
Olivier
