If I understand your problem is that you are attemtpting to generate local
mailfilters for your users to generate from Sqwebmail. I
know that under courier-mta I had to create a file called maildirfilterconfig
inside of the user's Maildir/ so that the web server
could generate the filters (since this is where the webserver runs so it reads
this file). The contents of this file are:
MAILDIRFILTER=pathtomailfilter MAILDIR=pathtomaildir
Kind of what you have under the global Maildirfilterconfig, but for local
filtering rules you need that file also under the Maildir/
especially if they are being generated by Sqwebmail (at least this is how I
understood it)
Hope this works for you.

Subject: [maildropl] Maildrop not launching through Sqwebmail filters.
I have configured RH7.3 and qmail with LDAP and sqwebmail 3.5.1. The users are
able to login using LDAP authentication. Maildrop has
been installed w/o any specific switches. The users wanted vacation auto-replies
and other features.
All users are created using vmail i.e under /home/vmail/$user. The
.qmail-default file is in this directory and below this is
Maildir - i.e. /home/vmail/$user/Maildir
I have created /usr/local/share/sqwebmail/maildirfilterconfig having
MAILDIRFILTER=../.mailfilter
MAILDIR=./Maildir
The user's .qmail-default file contains
|/usr/local/bin/maildrop
./Maildir/
I also tried adding as mentioned in the mailing list...
In sqwebmail I am getting two additional options for Mail filtering now. I have
created a vacation-type reply. i.e if address
contains user's self address then a vacation-type autoreply is generated. I saw
the ./mailfilter file and since sendmail is being
used for delivering the mail (and I am using qmail) I added a softlink in
/usr/bin
ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/bin/sendmail
No autoreply is being genereated and I am also not able to make out any error as
/var/log/qmail/current just contains the delivered
message activity. Mail generated by maildrop/sendmail combination is not logged
here.
Is .qmail-default enough to let Qmail know about maildrop presence?
Do I have to specify in the LDAP definition that maildrop is being used?
Or is there something else wrong? How do I see the logs?
PS~ It will be nice if a search option is available on the maildrop mailing
lists... will makelife easire for novices like me!!!
Alternatively all users can maintain a discipline wherein the subject line can
say a lot about the problem rather than just 'a
problem in maildrop' or 'help me'??
