What you need to do is to specify the MailDir of your secretary's account.
Whereever that might be... For example:
to "/home/secretary/Maildir/".
The qmail-inject or !email@address is only useful in the maildrop when
forwarding to an external account.
Hmm. Think again. If this would be true, there would be no security on that
machine, don't you agree?
Well, but you do agree hat injecting the mail again and again will loop?
With the current setup the mail will come in, be forwarded to the
secretary, go through the filter again and again...
Concering security: I use a vpopmail setup. All accounts are owned by a
single vpopmail user. Maildrop is run as this user and puts mail in
people's maildir with this uid. The POP3 server authenticates users then
reads mail with the vpopmail uid.
In your setup, I'm assuming maildrop should be running as the uid of the
user that gets mail as to be able to write to that directory. I don't know
where your maildir directories are and who they are owned by and who should
have access to them apart from the MUAs. Maildrop is a local mail delivery
replacement with a good filtering engine. A local mail delivery agent needs
to be able to write mail somewhere and needs adequate permissions to do so.
Some LDAs run as root... which is obviously not optimal.
