Karsten, are you using maildirs or mailboxes? Could you change the lines at the top of your file like:

I use Maildirs (Courier-IMAP) and you were right, my /etc/maildroprc contained the line DEFAULT="$HOME/Maildir" After changing that to DEFAULT="$HOME/Maildir/" the filter for my testuser started working.

But on my own account it does not work, and that seems strange.

My .mailfilter:

logfile "$HOME/Maildir/maildrop.log" log "default=$DEFAULT" if (/^From:.*be@domeus.de/:h) { log "rule1: $MATCH" to "Maildir/.MyServer.ColdMedia" } if (/^From:.*@amazon.de/:h) { log "rule2: $MATCH" to "Maildir/.Amazon" }

and my logfile: default=/home/k_iwen/Maildir/ rule1: Date: Tue Jan 28 19:01:49 2003 From: "Test User" <te@user.de> Subj: Testnachricht fuer KI File: Maildir/.MyServer.ColdMedia (2572)

If you're using maildirs, the destination in your 'to' statements should end with a trailing slash:

logfile "$HOME/Maildir/maildrop.log" if (/^From:.*be@domeus.de/:h) { log "rule1: $MATCH" to "Maildir/.MyServer.ColdMedia/" } if (/^From:.*@amazon.de/:h) { log "rule2: $MATCH" to "Maildir/.Amazon/" }

Otherwise it will attempt to deliver to an mbox file called '.MyServer.ColdMedia', not to the maildir '.MyServer.ColdMedia/'. Since the directory exists, I expect maildrop wouldn't be able to create an mobox file with the same name.
