Everything built and installed fine, and I can call maildrop in .qmail

qmail know to use maildrop for local deliveries?
I haven't used qmail in five years, but even I still remember that you
specify the default local delivery instructions as the sole argument to
qmail-start. Replace the './Maildir' argument with '| /usr/local/bin/maildrop'.
yeah, but you're smarter than I am. Nothing in my experience running
qmail (6 years and dozens of installs) would have clued me into taking out
./Maildir/', since that's the destination, not the MDA, but I guess the
qmail rc file works alot like a .qmail file, at least after the part
where qmail is invoked.
Anyway, the /var/qmail/rc now looks like this:
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start '| /usr/local/bin/maildrop' splogger qmail
#qmail-start ./Maildir/ splogger qmail
Mail delivery works, but filtering isn't. For system accounts,
$HOME/.mailfilter is being ignored and for vpopmail accounts,
~vpopmail/domains/domain.com/user/.mailfilter is being ignored. The good
news is that now Sqwebmail is creating recipes there for both types of
accounts. There is no maildroprc file.
What am I missing?
Thanks again,
