I am having trouble figuring out how to get maildrop to work properly... manually or by postfix. Can someone give me some help?

Thanks in advance!

************************** Manually when I try: cat test | /usr/local/bin/maildrop -d "jo@dullesmicro.com" I get: /usr/local/bin/maildrop: Invalid home directory permissions - world writable. ************************** Postfix gives me an error code: Nov 10 01:07:15 email postfix/pipe[29337]: send attr reason = temporary failure. Command output: maildrop: signal 0x0B ************************** I am not sure if they are related I dont think it is really a permmisions problem..mabey it cant find the proper folder... ************************** Here is the configure: ./configure --enable-trusted-users="root vmail postfix" --enable-maildrop-uid=root --enable-maildrop-gid=mail --enable-maildirquota --enable-maildropmysql --enable-syslog=1 --enable-restrict-trusted=0 --with-mysqlconfig=/etc/postfix/maildropmysql.config --enable-DEBUG

somewher I read I have to configure the config.h file in maildrop before "make". I cant figure out what "define def" is suppose to look like....if i really need to change that. ************************** Here is the sql config file for maildrop:
