Hmm, well I removed the courier-maildrop package and installed the plain "maildrop" package and now everything works?? Anyone have any insight into why the courier-maildrop package didn't play nicely with postfix/courier-*?

Yes, but I am using courier-authdaemon, courier-imap, and courier-pop??

After a little more research I came up with the following.

When running the command "maildrop -V10 -d dm@example.com" as root, the following is output:

maildrop: authlib: groupid=5000 maildrop: authlib: userid=5000 maildrop: authlib: logname=dm@example.com, home=/var/spool/mail/virtual, mail=/var/spool/mail/virtual/example.com/dm/ maildrop: Changing to /var/spool/mail/virtual

When run as the user "virtual" instead of root, the output it:

maildrop: authlib: groupid=5000 maildrop: authlib: userid=5000 maildrop: authlib: logname= dm@example.com, home=/var/spool/mail/virtual, mail=/var/spool/mail/virtual/example.com/dm/ maildrop: Changing to /home/virtual

Note the 4th line is different when run as virtual. When I run as root, it recognizes all of the fields properly (i.e. $DEFAULT becomes /var/spool/mail/virtual/example.com/dm). However, when run as virtual, $DEFAULT remains "./Maildir").

You mentioned that you did not compile maildrop yourself, you installed a package. I suspect that you've installed the wrong package. You've installed the Courier version of maildrop, which correctly works only with Courier. You need to install the standalone version of maildrop.
