No, that's not what this error message is telling you. It's telling you that 
the connection to the authdaemon socket has failed due to insufficient 
permissions.

The "NOTE" on the first page of maildrop's INSTALL file gives you three 
options for properly configuring your security policy so that maildrop has 
the necessary permissions to connect to authdaemon's socket and validate the 
userid.

It seems that for these recipients, your mail server invokes maildrop using 
a userid that does not have the sufficient privileges, and the correct 
security policy for your system, as described in INSTALL, has not been 
properly set up.

Your account database must have a matching entry for whatever parameter gets 
passed to maildrop using it's -d option.

Dovecot Authentication extension for maildrop (PATCH)

Hi,

recently I was in a process of modifying my mail server setup, and after a 
lot of thought ended up using maildrop as a MDA in a Postfix/Dovecot mail 
server combo. I decided to use Dovecot because I needed smtp authentication 
in Postfix and for me it was much easier to use its sasl implementation with 
Postfix. Anyway, to cut the long story short, only thing that was missing 
from this picture was the fact that maildrop couldn't perform user lookups 
against a user database that was being served by Dovecot in order to easily 
determinate proper mailbox location and home directory of my "virtual" 
users. I know that I probably could have configured Courier Authlib to 
authenticate against the same data, however I wanted to avoid having a 
separate daemon running on my server and to avoid having to maintain two 
separate configurations regarding user database.

As a result of this, I ended up writing an extension for maildrop, that 
would allow it to do user lookups against Dovecot in a similar way how they 
are done now against Courier Authlib. And as a token of my appreciation, I'm 
releasing my code to the public. For everyone that may be interested in this 
extension, a patch against maildrop version 2.0.4 can be downloaded from the 
following location: 
http://www.max.rs/ozone/maildrop-2.0.4-dovecotauth.patch.txt The socket 
communication code was based on code from Courier Authlib, while the rest of 
the code that implements actual communication protocol is written with 
simplicity in mind and tries to follow the coding style of the rest of 
maildrop's source. The source code itself should be easy to comprehend if 
someone would want to look at it in a more detail.

When this patch is applied, maildrop will be extended with another command 
line option "-t", which can be used to specify the location of Dovecot's 
master auth socket that would be used when performing user lookups. This 
extension can coexist with Courier Authlib compiled at the same time, when 
option "-t" is not specified maildrop would behave as usual. There's a 
readme file (README.dovecotauth) together with patch with a little bit more 
information regarding the use of this extension.

I hope that some of you may find my extension useful and that it may even 
get included together with maildrop in the future.

maildrop + Ldap , maildirsize don't update

Hi guys,

I'm sorry about my poor english, 

 I use LDAP to storage my e-mail users, with qmail-schema. It's ok. I
 use postfix-ldap, and it's ok, qmail create files (maildirsize and others),
 normally.

 Actually, i need install maildrop, to control TMDA.. i compile
 maildrop with options:

--enable-maildropldap
 --with-ldapconfig=/etc/maildrop/maildropldap.config
 --with-etcdir=/etc/maildrop --enable-maildirquota  --with-authlib
--sysconfdir=/etc --enable-syslog=1 --enable-maildirquota
--enable-maildrop-uid=1003 --enable-maildrop-gid=8

and simply:

 --enable-maildirquota  --with-authlib --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-syslog=1
--enable-maildirquota --enable-maildrop-uid=1003 --enable-maildrop-gid=8

 I'm using authlibdaemon and my authldaprc, i have:

 quota_attr              quota

When i execute: 
 authtest tiago.pereira <at> domain.com.br passwd
Authentication succeeded.

    Authenticated: tiago.pereira <at> domain.com.br  (uid 1003, gid 8)
    Home Directory: /mailhome/domain.com.br/tiago.pereira
    Maildir: /mailhome/domain.com.br/tiago.pereira/Maildir/
    Quota: 2S
   Encrypted Password: {MD5}xy/Z2teUX1fNw==
   Cleartext Password: passwd
    Options: (none)

 and set in deliveryProgramPath "/usr/local/bin/maildrop /etc/maildroprc".
 It's ok, maildrop run and configure tmda on it.

 Maildrop update file maildirsize when new messages is coming.
 But, when a new e-mail user as created, maildrop don't create file
 maildirsize. And, when i change mailQuota value, 25000000S (example),
 maildrop don't update maildirsize file for new quota value.  Can you Help
me ?

Correct.

That's because maildrop is not used when a new account gets created. 
maildrop only gets invoked when the first message gets delivered to the 
account.

Did you verify that the new quota setting was properly set, using authtest?

I think that "0S" gets interpreted as "no quota". Try using a reasonable 
quota setting.

Additionally, maildrop's INSTALL file lists three options to choose from, in 
the NOTE section near its beginning, for a required manual configuration 
steps that's required in order to have maildrop work properly with 
courier-authlib. Which option did you choose?
