Hi there I have installed maildrop with courier with virual hosts running from mysql and everything works perfectly. As long as I dont need to use the .mailfilter file :-)

Maildrop runs in Embedded mode which means that I can use the ./mailfilters directory which as explained in localmailfilter.html are used to deny incomming e-mails.

I want to use .mailfilter to filter my mail and to store them in diverant mailboxes. But maildrop seems to ignore the ./mailfilter files.

Should I use courierfilter instead or is there a way of getting the ./mailfilter files to work.

What is your DEFAULTDELIVERY in /etc/courier/courierd set to? Note that courierfilter is the MTA (Mail Transfer Agent, host to host) filtering system for Courier. Maildrop is the MDA (Mail Delivery Agent, host to mailbox) filtering system for Courier. I do not believe there is any way for regular users to specify courierfilter rules for delivery. Per user filtering is done via .mailfilter.
