I am attempting to get maildrop working with postfix/mysql. I have postfix/mysql working well with courier-authlib and -imap. Postfix is also hooked up to amavis-new/clamav/spamassassin, fwiw.

I would like to get this working where every domain uses maildrop. The problem that I am having is that there are multiple ways of configuring this, and since maildrop and courier-authlib were recently revised, the howto's I've found are dated and I'm not that confident that they're accurate anymore. Idially I would like the arrangement where maildrop is assigned as virtual_transport and each domain's delivery agent is "local". No matter what I've done, I can't get any mention of maildrop in my logs. I even created a .mailfilter with bad rules just to see if it could generate errors. The closest I've gotten is when I resorted to setting the delivery agent in the transports table to maildrop instead of local, and I got an error:

Jul 2 15:47:29 linux postfix/pipe[18677]: 952C0638AE: to=<rbra...@amd64.csd-bes.net>, relay=maildrop, delay=0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: ERR: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: Permission denied /usr/bin/maildrop: Temporary authentication failure. )

I'm using "mailuser" as the maildrop user, which is the user that has access to the maildirs.

Here are my main.cf and master.cf; there may be conflicting settings in them because of the multiple configuring options, but I don't recognize them. master.cf:
