courier-maildrop is not vulnerable to this issue as it sets certain variables 
that trigger the right code.

 So, DSA-1975 web page will not appear? Anyway, it should be there, I think.

Hi!

Did anybody check whether courier-maildrop is also affected by this
issue? This should be the same codebase (same author), except maybe some
different compile time options / different version.

I wanted to let you know about it. It might be a good idea to add this
to security.debian.org. The package has been uploaded (src + amd64 +
ia64) to stable-proposed-updates and source is always availbale on
mentors.d.n[2].

I can't really see the problem so far, are you sure that downgrading to 
2.0.2-11 fixes the issue? To downgrade just use:
'apt-get install --reinstall maildrop=2.0.2-11'

I've checked the differences between the version again and there aren't any 
build-time breakages. As already suggested via private mail, please feel free 
to ping me on IRC or answer in private for debugging.

Cheers
Steffen

Discussed with Antti-Juhani and the issue is caused by #554788.
New packages that add the dependency are in preparation.

The behavior of the etch package changed too. Do not install the package
on production system yet.


The limit in /etc/postfix/main.cf stopped working:
maildrop_destination_recipient_limit= 1

Almost all E-Mails are rejected and sender get errors like this:

: user unknown. Command output: ERR: authdaemon:
s_connect() failed: Permission denied Invalid user specified.

I've tried to change the permission for common files, but this won't fix
the problem. Something is wrong with the behavior to the previous
version.

This update appears to have dropped the hard dependency on courier-authlib.  As
a result, mail starts bouncing.
