Thanks to those who previously responded to this however,

Maildrop continues to deliver to Mbox only. I am not doing any filtering yet so my /etc/mail/maildroprc is empty at this time. FYI, my platform is Solaris 2.8.

The INSTALL document states to do the following for a basic install.

./configure make make install-strip make install-man

And it also states to make maildrop the local delivery agent to sendmail use the following in sendmil.cf

Mlocal, P=/usr/local/bin/maildrop, F=lsAw5:/|@SPfhn, S=10/30, R=20/40, T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix, A=maildrop -d $u

No problem, I did this and maildrop is delivering mail to MBox. However, I want to be able to deliver mail to maildir

(For example /var/mail/t/t/ttest for user ttest). Incidentally, I'm using maildirmake to create the maildir structure with the following permissions

drwxrwx--- 5 ttest mail 512 Jan 9 15:26 ttest/

The instructions state to set the DEFUALT_DEV variable to /var/mail/=/= to support the maildir format I want to implement. My question is, where is the default variable set? I see it in /export/home//maildrop-1.3.6/maildrop/config.h but the setting there is #define DEFAULT_DEF "/var/mail". Its commented out. I tried removing the comment it and setting it to /var/mail/=/= but this did not work. I didn;t think it would because I suspect this file is the product of the configure script.

Any ideas?
