Package: courier-mta Version: 0.53.2-3 Severity: important I changed the default delivery mode of Courier MTA by uncommenting the following line in /etc/courier/courierd
DEFAULTDELIVERY="| /usr/bin/maildrop" and in the same file I have, by default, MAILDROPDEFAULT=./Maildir But the above setting will not affect the maildrop command given by the maildrop package. maildrop will keep delivering mails to /var/spool/mail instead of ~/Maildir because it will not read the environment variables set by courier. I can of course set the DEFAULT variable in /etc/maildroprc or install the courier-maildrop package to get this to work as expected. But inorder to avoid this confusion, I think it is good to introduce a conflict in the courier-mta package with the maildrop and add courier-maildrop to the Suggests/Recommends list. Racke, I would also like to refer to the mail sent in resopose to your query by Sam on the courier-user list. http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg27350.html Cheers Avinash. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17.9-betsi Locale: LANG=en_IN, LC_CTYPE=en_IN (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages courier-mta depends on: ii courier-base 0.53.2-3 Courier Mail Server - Base system ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-13 GCC support library ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-3 GNU dbm database routines (runtime ii libperl5.8 5.8.8-6.1 Shared Perl library ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-13 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 courier-mta recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
