Sure. As the maildropfilter man page describes, there's a global filter file that's read before each account's filter file. Yours is probably configured to be /usr/local/etc/maildroprc. DEFAULT="./Maildir" will probably do what you want. Well, yes. Of course, some arrangements must be made to make this operation atomic, otherwise there'll be a race if two simultaneous deliveries to the same account decide to create the same folder, at the same time. But, historically, whenever I heard something like this, it was always the case of looking for answers in the wrong place. Whatever the reason you think you need to create folders automatically, it's likely that there's a better way of accomplishing the same goals. Think about what your goal is, instead of the means of getting there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.

I tested this, and my mail ended up in /var/mail/USERNAME, in mbox format. I have existing Maildir folders already in /usr/home/*/Maildir/ I did not install maildrop manually, and such I did not read the INSTALL file. I used my operating system's package manager, which consisted of me doing: cd /usr/ports/mail/maildrop &amp;&amp; make install I now went through the install file, and it says I need to edit/verify the DEFAULT_DEF option in config.h. Unfortunately, that is not an option in the method I used to install maildrop. Is it not possible to override this seemingly compile-time default in a maildroprc file? So is it correct that I would need to script this in my maildroprc file? Eg, if dir does not exist, run makemaildir to create it, then deliver the mail? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.

Maildrop will not automatically create folders by itself. A mail delivery agent, like maildrop, delivers mail to existing mailboxes and folders. It does not create them, if they do not exist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.

I'd like to be able to filter mail into various folders for mailing lists, spam, and other various things. I installed Maildrop on my system and i configured Postfix to call it via the "mailbox_command = /usr/local/bin/maildrop -d ${USER}" option. I have googled around extensively, and I can't seem to figure out how to get maildrop to deliver to a Maildir. I am using system users, so everything is located in /usr/home/$USER/Maildir/. I can't seem to find any example maildroprc file in my installation, or any examples online. What is the best way to do this and create folders if they don't exist? Eg, a "Spam" folder to move mail detected by spamassassin into. Also, as I mentioned, I currently use amavis-new for clamav and spamassassin filtering. Would it be better to use maildrop for such filtering? Would this give me any advantages over amavis-new? This is my first major email system configuration, and my first time using any type of MDA. Thank you for your help. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second. Boundary is the first to Know...and Tell You.

Although, by default, the global config file is /etc/maildroprc, this can be overridden when maildrop gets built. Check the build configuration for the maildrop package that you are using. Then check your mail logs. Its entirely possible that the CC cannot be delivered, for some reason. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization &amp; Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/_______________________________________________ Courier-maildrop mailing list Courier-maildrop&lt; at &gt;lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-maildrop </pre> Sam Varshavchik 2012-02-24T23:41:25 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.mail.maildrop/5137 <pre> Double check your man page. Mine is looking in /etc/courier/maildroprc. Maybe it's dependent upon which version you're running. Run a test mail through it manually, call it test.eml (full email, with headers, but not with a leading Delivered-To header) : maildrop -d $localuser -f $remoteuser &lt; test.eml Look for any output that indicates something is happening that is unexpected.
