Hi everyone.
I'm setting up an autoresponder/away/vacation message on a mailbox on 
our courier server, and the mailbot seems to be having some trouble with 
the duplicate autoresponses database (-d parameter). The mailbot manpage 
says that "The  -d  option  is only available if maildrop has GDBM/DB 
extensions enabled." but is not clear if this means BOTH GDBM & DB or 
ONE OF GDBM or DB must be available.

When I try to find out what our system actually supports, I get a 
contradictory output:
$ maildrop -v
maildrop 2.0.0 Copyright 1998-2005 Double Precision, Inc.
** GDBM extensions enabled.
** Enabled Berkeley DB instead of GDBM extensions.
Maildir quota extension enabled.
...

**s added by me above.

If I take out the -d parameter altogether, the autoreply goes through fine.

So what's the deal? Do I need to recompile maildrop?

Thanks in advance,
Benjamin
