I'm just going to start with a new mail server, and I think courier seems to be great for me. Unfortunatelly I didn't find a really good howto for using postfix + maildrop and courier-imap. Hope you can help me.

There isn't much to do. If you need virtual users, compile maildrop with --with-db=db and Postfix with DB support and point Postfix' local_recipient_maps or virtual_mailbox_maps to the same data base that maildrop uses, you may need to add a symlink from userdb.dat to userdb.db and specify hash:/etc/userdb.

Other than that, use mailbox_command if you need .forward-style forwards (this doesn't work for virtual users) or define a maildrop transport (documentation ships with recent Postfix releases) and apply my patch from http://mandree.home.pages.de/postfix/fix-maildrop-NO_USER.diff to make sure that locally injected or generated mail (sendmail command, bounces to local users) bounces rather than lingering in the queue for a week.
