Hmm. Not sure where the problem is, but I do think it's a permissions issue. As far as I can tell, here's what you should be looking at:
... the home directory is where Maildrop looks for the ".mailfilter" file. This directory must be owned by the uid of the Unix user of the mail account. If you're using virtual users, this should be owned by whatever Unix account you use for your virtual users, and not be world-writable. If you have a ".mailfilter" file, it should be owned by the same user and have 600 permissions.
Your maildir directory should also be owned by the Unix user account for your virtual user, and not be world-writeable.
Beyond this much, I'd have to do some digging, but I've found the error messages to be helpful locating the problem...

thanks for the reply... I changed the permissions, they look like this now:
drwxr-xr-x 168 root root 8192 Nov 9 21:10 mail
But I still get the same error. /usr/local/bin/maildrop -d "jo...@domain.com"
/usr/local/bin/maildrop: Invalid home directory permissions - world writable.
with postfix: (temporary failure. Command output: maildrop: signal 0x0B
