Debian GNU/Linux original sarge packages (Courier v0.58-5) and maildrop
v2.0.2-11 which slightly modified by me:
* Recompile with LDAP support => --enable-maildropldap --with-ldapconfig=...
No such thing anymore. You can remove this; it's been moved to authlib.
* Disable chdir(homedir) - I'm running AFS! => --disable-tempdir
* Log fatal errors to syslog => --enable-syslog=1
As MTA (as said earlier, I always missinterpret MTA and MDA) I use
Qmail-LDAP/Controls which, before calling maildrop, does a cd to
the mailMessageStore (which it also thinks is the home directory
using basicaly the same trick as with Courier - LDAP_HOMEDIR).
just a bet.
If maildrop was built with HAVE_COURIER, then it may be trying to import
variables (HOME, DEFAULT, ...) from courier-mta (which is not running)
and thus using default builting values.
Which is where I was going. The answer I was looking for was whether
he has installed courier-maildrop or just maildrop. The former will
fail in interesting ways unless you're using the Courier MTA.
