Default Re: [courier-users] Maildrop & Postfix

Ok, I know what's going on.
Maildrop expects the UID/GID given it to be the owner and group for
the "home="
Unfortunately that goes against being able to have a separate UID/GID
for each domain or even each user as available through Authlib and
Courier IMAP.
Is there a way to stop Maildrop from checking the UID/GID of the
"home=" (without hacking the source)?

Thanks again,
-Rich
