Hello,

I'm using postfix + maildrop on freebsd 4.9 (stable) In main.cf, i have: mailbox_transport = maildrop

In master.cf, i have: maildrop unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail argv=/usr/local/bin/maildrop -d ${recipient}

maildrop is compiled wirh the following options :

./configure --enable-syslog=1 --enable-use-flock --with-etcdir=/usr/local/etc --enable-maildrop-uid=root --enable-maildrop-gid=mail --without-db --enab le-sendmail=/usr/sbin/sendmail --prefix=/usr/local --build=i386-portbld-freebsd4.9

This is the default config.

I use local users only (no virtual).

In master.cf, i have user=vmail and vmail account doesn't exist, so it doesn't work of course. What should i do ? Should i create the vmail account ? or can i use an other account ? I tried with user = postfix but i got the following message : postfix/pipe[85777]: fatal: user= command-line attribute specifies mail system owner postfix I created a user 'maildrop', put user = maildrop in master.cf, and then i got this message : postfix/pipe[86089]: DE636B1: to=<ot...@smtp2.phys.univ-tours.fr>, relay=maildrop, delay=1, status=bounced (user unknown. Command output : Invalid user specified. )

I read that mailbox_transport was preferable to mailbox_command, but i didn't find any doc for using it with maildrop and local users.

Please help.
