my apologies. didn't follow you. yah, and in most postfix
implementations, you have to make sure that user has permissions to suid
to the target user's uid. make sure you configure with proper uid and
gid and that the binary that gets installed has sufficient ownership and
permissions...

^^^^^^
I'm doing virtual hosting with mysql also, but maildrop changes
to the user defined in the (user=) parameter prior to delivery, and if
that user does not exist, maildrop craps out with the error which
Marc had mentioned.
temporary failure. Command output:
/usr/local/maildrop/current/bin/maildrop: Invalid user specified.
The user specified must be valid on your unix system.
Check /etc/passwd . Create the user if it doesnt exist.
absolutely not true if you are doing virtual hosting and have the
mysql
extension to maildrop enabled.
