Hello all,

I've been trying to configure a mail server with following components Postfix 2.2.10 maildrop 2.0.2 courier-authlib-0.58 openldap 2.3.23 cyrus-sasl 2.1.22

I'm getting a maildrop: Unable to open mailbox error. The mailbox resides in /home/webmaster and is owned by vmail:vmail. I'm sure this is a trivial fix but it baffles me. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Chida

Here is my configuration,
