In which order each of these files - $HOME/.courier, $HOME/.mailfilter and maildroprc - get in effect during a mail delivery?

It is clear to me that maildroprc is used before looking for a $HOME/.mailfilter. My doubt is, when does $HOME/.courier is used? Before or after $HOME/.mailfilter? Before or after maildroprc?

Neither.

Delivery instructions in $HOME/.courier are processed for each message. $HOME/.mailfilter and maildroprc are processed by maildrop. If delivery instructions in $HOME/.courier do not invoke maildrop, maildrop's delivery instructions are not read even if they exist.
