Actually, the command I really meant to type was: # maildrop -V9 -d te@domain1.com <<-- Capital V Invalid user specified.

That's a different story.

maildrop works with system (unix account) users but not virtual users in userdb.

I also checked the source archive I downloaded from the courier-mta.com web site link and it appears that enable-userdb is set.

There's no such option in the current version of maildrop.

The current version of maildrop uses courier-authlib, which implements userdb access.

So how can I test maildrop to be sure that it is using userdb? Does it need any configuration in either /etc/maildroprc or another file?

For the current version of maildrop, you need to compile, install, and test, courier-authlib first.

The tools in the courier-authlib will allow you to verify that the account database is properly set up, i.e. "tes@domain.com" is recognized as a valid mailbox name.

Once you've set up courier-authlib, you will need to recompile maildrop.
