Hello,

I have a Courier mail server with virtual users (authuserdb) and a 
number of hosted domains. Every virtual user has its Maildir, but all of 
them are owned by a single real system user id 5000 (username is 
"mailboxes").

I want to configure fetchmail so that the messages it fetches from a 
remote POP3/IMAP server are delivered to the correct Courier virtual 
user. Here is my first try of a fetchmailrc:

     poll pop.tiscali.it with proto pop3 user 'xxx...@tiscali.it' there 
with password 'secret' is 'lu...@sulweb.org' here options fetchall 
stripcr mda '/usr/bin/maildrop'

Now that does not work. I don't know what fetchmail does of the "is 
'lu...@sulweb.org' here" part, but it's not telling maildrop about it. 
Maildrop happily delivers messages in the mailboxes user (id=5000) 
Maildir, not in the lu...@sulweb.org's Maildir.

I've tried reading the maildrop manpage and then tried the following 
alternative mda strings:

     mda '/usr/bin/maildrop -M /home/mail/sulweb.org/lucio/.mailfilter'

and

     mda '/usr/bin/maildrop -d lu...@sulweb.org'

both of which failed miserably (maildrop keeps delivering to home 
directory of user with id=5000, e.g. mailboxes).

How do I configure fetchmail and maildrop with virtual users?
