Hello, I have been running a virtual host setup on debian lenny with postfix/mysql/courier with maildrop as the MDA.
All worked fine and then I set up a new box with debian squeeze and tried to do the same thing with the same config. On the new box, instead of mail being delivered to the user in Maildir format, it is all being deposited in a Mbox file called Maildir in the 'home' directory. This has to be some simple misconfiguration but I sure can't figure out what do do. Mysql has a database called vmail where maildrop looks up where to deliver the mail. That seems to be working it is making the correct query and running maildrop at the command line seems to indicate it is getting the right responses. maildrop -V9 -d [email protected] maildrop: authlib: groupid=503 maildrop: authlib: userid=503 maildrop: authlib: [email protected], home=/home/vmail, mail=example.com/j/exampleuser/ maildrop: Changing to /home/vmail Message start at 0 bytes, envelope [email protected] maildrop: Attempting .mailfilter well that's where it dies. Contrast with the older box, same configuration but Maildrop 2.04 instead of 2.50 maildrop -V9 -d [email protected] maildrop: authlib: groupid=503 maildrop: authlib: userid=503 maildrop: authlib: [email protected], home=/home/vmail, mail=domain.com/j/exampleuser/ maildrop: Changing to /home/vmail Message start at 0 bytes, envelope [email protected] Tokenized exception Tokenized { Tokenized ; Tokenized logfile etc, etc, and the mail is delivered properly. A couple things I'm not clear on... where am I telling it to look for the mailfilter? On the box that works they are in a folder called mailfilters under /home/vmail/ .... I have the same directory on the new box but it seems like it is not finding it. And looking at the config on the working box I don' see where I told it to look for it there either. (It's been a few years since I set that up.) Maildrop also doesn't seem to know to 'use' the Maildir format, instead it's thinking Maildir is the mailbox even though I have home_mailbox = Maildir/ in my postfix config file.. Help please!
