I've set it at system level. $ grep DEFAULT /etc/maildroprc DEFAULT="$HOME/Maildir" But if a rule fails maildrop will return an error to the caller program. A well written caller program will just try later which is exactly what getmail has done. I noticed the errors from cron and corrected the mistake ASAP.
