ok here is the deal.

I am running a script where a particular line executes a script to create a new
maildir for new users. but when then script executes it gives me an error
"maildrop:_error_writing_to_filter" on my debug screen.

here is a snippet of the script that is giving me the error.

exception { #"| /var/vpopmail/bin/newuser" xfilter"/var/vpopmail/bin/newuser" }

I have tried two version of the script the top one that is commented out did not
work.

the bottom one works but it gives me the above error. the script creates a
maildir for routing mail to.

the commented line #"| /var/vpopmail/bin/newuser" does not create the maildirs. help!!!!!!!!

please no flames.

PS:Here is the script

content

VHOME=`/var/vpopmail/bin/vuserinfo -d $EXT@$HOST` /usr/bin/maildirmake $VHOME/Maildir/.content

by the way. I am running qmail latest version maildrop latest version and
vpopmail latest version. and I drive a 1985 chevy blazer. ::))
