my /etc/maildroprc file looks like this....

SHELL="/bin/bash" SENDMAIL="/usr/lib/sendmail" MAILDROP="/usr/local/bin/maildrop" logfile "/var/log/maildrop" VERBOSE="4"

if (/^Subject:.*[:mailtestnow:]/ \ { /dev/null }

When an email with the subject mailtestnow shows up, it is delivered to the user. Is the syntax totally wrong, why can I not filter? Please help.

What evidence can you post that shows that sendmail will use maildrop to deliver mail? maildrop can't process mail by magic alone. You have to configure sendmail to use maildrop for local mail delivery.
