Subject:[maildropl] Re: "Invalid user specified" when use maildrop with postfix.Actions...

Dear Sir,

If using static uids/gid, run maildrop with "-d vmail ....", the server delivers message manually to recipient's mailbox by script on maildroprc. There is difficult when send message to alias mail (ex: all_@virtualdomain.com deliver to over thousands staff) and more trouble on maildroprc if server can't get ${recipient}.

Can I configure maildrop use a db backend to retrieve entry and deliver message automatically ?

(Example, I reuse entry on virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/vmailbox, or /etc/userdb).

Thanks you and best regards,

Dear Sir,

I installed postfix 2.2 and use "separate domains, non-UNIX accounts" style. There is my server configuration file: **main.cf: virtual_transport = maildrop transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport maildrop_destination_recipient_limit = 1 maildrop_destiantion_concurrency_limit = 1 **master.cf maildrop unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail argv=/usr/local/courier/bin/maildrop -d ${recipient} **transport virtualdomain.com maildrop: **maillog Mar 15 15:11:31 tigon postfix/pipe[22658]: ECD3B5147D:to=<in@virtualdomain.com>, relay=maildrop, delay=1, status=bounced (user unknown. Command output: Invalid user specified. )

maildrop was run with "-d in@virtualdomain.com" but in@virtualdomain.com doesn't exist as a user. if maidlrop uses a db backend to get uids, make sure the db contains an entry for in@virtualdomain.com.

If using static uids/gids, just run maildrop with "-d vmail ...." and use maildroprc to find the right maildir based on rcpt or other stuff.
