I was having the same problem, though I am not using the maildirconfig
file, and was given the suggestion to run maildrop manually so in
a /home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain/me/.qmail file I just put
| /usr/local/bin/maildrop ./.mailfilter
This is all I did and it seems to be working just fine.
Don't know if that will help but worth a try.
Of course, the .mailfilter is in the same directory and is the one created
by sqwebmail.

I am asking a newbie questions.
I have set up qmail + vpopmail + sqwebmail on my Freebsd 4.4 machine.
Everything goes well although a long time had been spent to get all of
these stuffs working together, especially the multi-domain.
To filter the junk mails, I was trying to install maildrop, which seems
to
be one of the most popular mail filtering software around the
world.
The documations is a bit tough for me as I haven't got much
experience
on Unix. I used the following commands to install
./configure
make
make install-strip
make install-man
I followed an article.
1. create a file /home/vpopmail/domains/mshome.net/.qmail-richard and
add
|/usr/local/bin/maildrop
in it.
2. create a file
/home/vpopmail/domains/mshome.net/richard/Maildir/maildirfilterconfig
and add
MAILDIRFILTER=../.mailfilter
MAILDIR=./Maildir
in it.
3. use the 'edit mail filters' in Sqwebmail and it automatically
creates a file
/home/vpopmail/domains/mshome.net/richard/.mailfilter
I tried to send my self rich...@mshome.net emails, but no emails
arriving at all.
Once I delete the file
/home/vpopmail/domains/mshome.net/.qmail-richard,
I can receive emails
but there is no filtering.
Also, I tried |/usr/local/bin/maildrop -d richard or
|/usr/local/bin/maildrop -m
etc.... in file
/home/vpopmail/domains/mshome.net/.qmail-richard, it comes out
the
same results.
After spend two days, I decied to seek help at this mailing list. Any
one that can
help me will be very appreciated.
Thank you.
