Hi,

Im trying to get maildrop working as part of my postfix+courier+mysql setup. Ive downloaded the maildrop tar but each time I compile and run maildrop -v, the mysql support is absent (no "Virtual user database via MySQL extension enabled." message). Courier Authlib libs are at /usr/lib/courier-authlib/. Any ideas why the mysql options are not built in ?

Because they're not supposed to, not anymore. You need to configure authlib to use the MySQL authentication module, and maildrop will use courier-authlib.

Ok well im using authlib and using mysql - ie im using postfix + courier +mysql to provide virtual domain accounts. The mailserver has been running well for the last 2 years. Now I want to add maildrop support (basically some server side scripts ala procmail) - so I download the maildrop tar and build it, getting no errors.

maildrop -v gives me:

maildrop 1.8.0 Copyright 1998-2004 Double Precision, Inc. GDBM extensions enabled. This program is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. See COPYING for additional information.

No mention of authlib support and if I run maildrop -d <vali@virtual.com> - i get " Invalid user specified".

Basically to me it looks like maildrop didnt find the authlib libs and so cant find virtual users in the myslq db
