Hi,

Before I decided to use Maildrop I had Postfix configured to search for
email recipients from the MySQL database and put all incoming mail in
/var/spool/mail/virtual/ (defined in the MySQL database itself). This worked
fine and without any problems. Now I decided to install Maildrop and I am
having some problems to configure this. I have downloaded Maildrop and
changed Postfix main.cf and master.cf as follows:

main.cf:
maildrop_destination_recipient_limit = 1
virtual_transport = maildrop

master.cf:
maildrop  unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe
flags=ODRhu user=mail argv=/usr/bin/maildrop -d ${recipient}

Now when I send an email using telnet I receive the following error:

“status bounced (user unknown. Command output: Invalid user specified)”

This response was also achieved when I enter the command:

“maildrop sysad...@mydomain.com”

I did a lot of research over the internet and I found out that the problem
is that Maildrop is not querying the MySQL database to check if the
recipient exists or not. Now my biggest problem is this; I found several
sites and all of them vary on how the problem should be solved and none seem
to solve it. 

In some websites they say that by default Maildrop is not configured to
support MySQL. However the problem seems only relevant for Debian (I am
using Ubuntu). 

What I would like to know is where should I put the files
maildropmysql.config or how to make Maildrop use Courier MySql config file!? 

Regards,
Sim085
