Subject:[maildropl] "unknown user" if cannot connect to mysqlActions...

Hi All,

I use maildrop to deliver mails to virtual users located in MySQL.(from Postfix).

If maildrop cannot connect to the database it returns "unknown user" instead of a 451 (tempfail) error code:

Oct 14 14:35:48 lon-quar-01 postfix/pipe[2044]: [ID 197553 mail.info] A79E2D7388: to=<roti@wardrobes.co.uk>, relay=maildrop, delay=55, status=bounced (user unknown. Command output: Could not connect to database 192.168.0.30 Could not connect to database 192.168.0.31 Invalid user specified. )

Has anyone got a fix?

Is this a known problem?

Thanks, Chris
