You will typically get that error if the home directory of the person maildrop is trying to deliver to is world writable. You will get a similar error if .mailfilter in that person's home directory has any world permissions what so ever.

Subject: [courier-users] Invalid home directory permissions - world writable
Hi, everyone,
I have installed Maildrop, and have set up Postfix to forward messages to Maildrop for delivery. However, the following error message always appears in the Postfix logs:
Temporary failure: /usr/local/bin/maildrop: Invalid home directory permissions - world writable.
Is the message referring to the recipient's home directory? Or Maildrop's directory? And is it indicating that the directory is currently world writable and shouldn't be, or that it should be world writable and isn't? I have searched on the Internet, but couldn't find any useful info.
Cheers Simon
