Thank you all for the help, and prompt replies. I installed courier-authlib, and already I had courier-imap working with ldap. So doing /usr/sbin/authtest it showed successfuly query against ldap.

Of course I spoke too early, although authtest works fine, running maildrop -d <virtual_user> still gets a "Invalid user specified." message. So now, there is no need for the /etc/maildrop/maildropldap.config file? Also I have courier-ldap, working and courier-imap working with ldap fine.

You might not like the following from a security viewpoint (suid/sgid programs can enable privilege escalation in certain circumstances), but standard maildrop binary perms are 755. Try 'chmod u+s,g+s `which maildrop`' as root. The reason is that maildrop has to be able to change euid to the uid calling it. See the maildrop INSTALL file for a more detailed discussion.
