Ok, so I came up with 2 possible ways of handling this setup:

Courier comes with an authtest program that will list the virtual (or
real) home directory of any user in its auth database.  However, spamc and 
spamd don't seem to be aware of this username, other than trying to 
extract it from the message itself (which isn't always accurate).

The second (and best) solution is that maildrop sets the HOME environment 
variable to the home directory of the current user it's executing for.  I 
doubt that it's much of an overhead to get spamc to add an extra header 
for this information (or even distribute a separate spamc if you think 
it's too much overhead by default, which I doubt it would be).

I'm no C coder, but I could easily make the mods to spamd if someone else 
can change spamc.
