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...

maildrop unix - n n - - pipe flags=uR user=maildrop argv=/usr/local/bin/maildrop -d $recipient -w 10 ^^^^^^

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.
