Something is wrong - the authtest thinks the homedir is: Home Directory: /home/sdm.rb29 whilst maildrop thinks the homedirectory is maildrop -V 3 -d john.doe maildrop: Changing to /home/john.doe
which is correct?

Hi all,
what is "maildrop: Unable to change to home directory" error means?
It means that maildrop cannot set its current directory to the account's home directory.
because the home directory of the user is owned by the user and now world readable or writeable.
Perhaps what you think the home directory isn't the same as what maildrop thinks it is.
please, shed some light on how maildrop works or the home directory as maildrop think. All I know is - maildrop would use the user account id - cd to the account home directory - deliver the message - change quota usage if used

With what user maildrop is running as?
perhaps root with group mail -rwxr-xr-x 1 root mail 165272 Mar 12 15:42 /usr/local/courier/bin/ maildrop
What's the home directory of this user?
I try to run authtest, heres the output authtest john.doe Authentication succeeded.
Authenticated: john.doe (uid 10673, gid 10027) Home Directory: /home/sdm.rb29 Maildir: (none) Quota: (none) Encrypted Password: {MD5}xxx Cleartext Password: (none) Options: disablepop3=0,disableimap=1
Is correct the home directory permissions?
hopefully yes, the permission is right, I use nscd to cache the user info from ldap. I try to turn off nscd, but nothings change
drwx------ 3 john.doe john.doe 4096 Jun 19 16:47 /home/john.doe/
try to run maildrop by hand (with the user) in verbose mode, to get all output.
maildrop -V 3 -d john.doe maildrop: Changing to /home/john.doe maildrop: Unable to change to home directory.
