I've just installed maildrop to use its filtering abilities, and to use Maildirs instead of mbox.

My setup is two basic PCs and a separate firewall box networked together accessing an ISP by dialup using a 56K external modem. I run Debian Woody on both boxes and to get used to Maildrop and Maildirs have installed Knoppix on a separate partition so leaving my existing mail and surfing setup untouched.

Getmail pulls my email from a pop3 account - the config works if I send the email to an mbox account. If I configure getmail to pipe to maildrop it does so when I have no .mailfilter file ( it puts all into a file it creates itself named 'maildir'). When I create Maildirs using 'maildirmake -S xxxx' and create the following /home/user/.mailfiter:-

-------------

SHELL"/usr/bin/bash" DEFAULT="/home/john/Maildir" if(/^To:.*debian-user@lists\.debian\.org$/) to Maildir/debian if(/^To:.*gllug@linux\.co\.uk$/) to Maildir/gllug if(/^To:.*getmail@discworld\.dnsalias\.org$/) to Maildir/getmail

------------- [SNIP] There doesn't seem to be any Maildrop Config Manual - at least I've been unable to find one.

I wonder if someone would be kind enough to point me in the right direction.

I'll answer your second question first. There is a manpage for maildrop filters - maildropfilter.
