Hello,
I just installed a new mail server on Debian 9 (Stretch) with the
following setup:
- postfix
- courier-imap + courier-imap-ssl
- amavis + spamassassin
- courier-maildrop for delivery to Maildir folders
NOTE: I copied the Maildir folders' content from my older mailserver
with an identical setup, one that has been running without problems for
years, but that I now want to retire.
Everything went very smooth, and everything works (sending mail,
receiving mail, authentication, certificates, IMAP folders showing in
the mail client (Thunderbird)) -- except for the very last thing:
received mail ends up in /var/spool/mail/[username] instead of the
users' Maildir folders.
I haven't been able to solve this problem after several hours of
searching and trying, so I turned to this mailing list.
Yes, I have specified the use of Maildir in main.cf:
home_mailbox = Maildir/
But when a message is handed off to maildrop, it doesn't end up in the
user's Maildir, but is added to the user file in /var/spool/mail. The
log file doesn't show any warning or error message (final lines showing
delivery of a test message, passed clean by amavis):
Dec 28 21:54:08 mail postfix/local[2755]: 26F111E0377:
to=<r...@linetec.nl>, relay=local, delay=0.01, delays=0/0.01/0/0.01,
dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/maildrop)
Dec 28 21:54:08 mail postfix/qmgr[2510]: 26F111E0377: removed
Is there a way to disable maildrop to see if that changes anything?
Strange enough I have a hard time finding information about maildrop and
maildroprc.
Also, there are no significant differences with the old server's
postfix, courier and maildrop configuration files (the server I'm using
right now). I also double-checked permissions, and there's no difference
there either.
Does anyone have a clue? I could provide all configuration files
(main.cf, master.cf), but I'm not sure which ones may be relevant, so I
won't dump it all here right away.
Thanks already for any clues,
Richard
