Hi,
I am having problems trying to get maildrop working in my mail server.
Have been using this configuration on a Redhat box for over a year and
recently moved to a Gentoo solution. Getting maildrop to work is the only
part that is failing.
To build the server, I have used the following gentoo documentation:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/qmail-howto.xml
Everything is running well but I get permission problems when I try to
introduce maildrop. I am getting the following errors in the qmail-send
logs:
@4000000042bdac521ae5d764 new msg 1109815
@4000000042bdac521ae5e704 info msg 1109815: bytes 1568 from

@4000000042bdac522a5dcd64 status: local 0/10 remote 0/20
I have checked the permissions of all the maildrop related files and the
maildir:
xen2 qmail-send # ls -la /usr/bin/maildrop
-rwxr-x--- 1 vpopmail mail 166816 May 18 19:25 /usr/bin/maildrop
xen2 qmail-send # ls -la /etc/maildrop/mailfilter
-rw------- 1 vpopmail vpopmail 545 May 18 20:28 /etc/maildrop/mailfilter
This is my .qmail-default and corresponding mailfilter.
xen2 qmail-send # cat /var/vpopmail/domains/hippotje.com/.qmail-default
| /usr/bin/maildrop /etc/maildrop/mailfilter
xen2 qmail-send # cat /etc/maildrop/mailfilter
import EXT
import HOST
import HOME
MAX = 15
VHOME=`/var/vpopmail/bin/vuserinfo -d $EXT@$HOST`
VPOP="| /var/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox"
JUNKFOLDER=".Spam"
if ($VHOME)
{
`test -d "$VHOME/.maildir/$JUNKFOLDER"`
if( $RETURNCODE != 1 )
{
if ( $SIZE < 262144 )
{
exception {
xfilter "/usr/bin/spamc -f -u $EXT@$HOST"
}
}
}
if (/^X-Spam-Flag: *YES/)
{
to "$VHOME/.maildir/$JUNKFOLDER/"
}
else
{
to "$VHOME/.maildir/"
}
}
else
{
to $VPOP
}
And finally -v output from maildrop.

Does anybody have any advice? This is the key to my complete mail server!!
Kind regards,
