I have installed Maildrop 1.3.5 under qmail. However, I haven't had any luck in getting it to work.

Here is the contents of .qmail file from my home directory:

| /var/qmail/bin/preline -f /usr/local/bin/maildrop .mailfilter

And this is the contents of my .mailfilter file, also in my home directory. It is as simple a test setup as I could think of that just sends anything from my hotmail account to a test maildir, which does exist and is in the proper format:

logfile "mailfilter-log.txt"

log "========="

if ( /^From: ihtr@hotmail.com/ ) { log "--------------------------------test " to "Maildir/.Test

You have an unclosed quotation mark.

Check your qmail-send logs, and you should see a deferral with a complaint from maildrop.

Thanks. That seems to have gotten it working. It never ceases to amaze me how easy it is to overlook the obvious.

Now, I just have to get the filtering language figured out :-)

Again, many thanks for the assistance.

Ian.
