    maildrop msgs not delivered correctly

    Hello everyone. I have problem trying to run mail server using postfix, courier imap and maildrop:
    I configured postfix and courier (with mysql virtual users) and in my transport table i have <mydomain> pointing to maildrop:
    Well, i have maildrop and when i try to send mail using mail account (gmail,hotmail,etc.) it sents it and in my mail.log i have
    ...relay=maildrop status=sent (delivered via maildrop service)
    but when i open squirrelmail it has no msgs and when i try to browse the directories in /home/vmail/<mydomain>/<mailuser>/Maildir its no new files..
    Then i found that all msgs that i sent were delivered into /home/vmail/Maildir (that is a file..)
    How can i fix this? Any ideas? Thanks in advance

    I have this exact problem.

    postfix + mysql + spamassassin + courier-maildrop is not working.

    It appears that the maildroprc file isn't getting the $USER, $HOST, etc.. variables set. They are blank and that's why my setup is delivering all mail to /home/vmail/./Maildir.

    I don't know whether it's my master.cf entry for maildrop that's screwed up:

    maildrop unix - n n - - pipe
    flags=DRhu user=vmail argv=/usr/bin/maildrop /etc/maildroprc ${user} ${nexthop} ${sender}


    ??? This is quite puzzling!

    The other thing I just noticed, if I run the following command:

    maildrop -V 4 -d email_test@test.com < /etc/motd

    it properly delivers my mail to the right location. This is what makes me think that postfix is not passing the right arguments to maildrop.
