<snipped>

The version in maildrop that's built as part of Courier uses Courier for all authentication services and address lookups. When Courier invokes maildrop it will take care of looking up the recipient's particulars in userdb, and communicate the relevant information to maildrop via environment

variables.

I am using Postfix to deliver mail via maildrop. The postfix configuration passes messages to maildrop via `| maildrop -d ${user}`. So I can't rely on Courier setting the environment variables. However, if you can tell me which environment variables to set to force maildrop to deliver a message to a given directory with a given uid/gid, my problem would be solved.

Thanks for any assistance...
