Re: .mailfilter rule mysteriously not followed

Michael,

1. situation: your fetchmailrc does not tell fetchmail to stuff messages
into mda.

By default, messages are handed off to your SMTP listener on Port 25,
which is Postfix in your situation.

This is what actually happens, shown by your logs and configuration.

2. desire: you want maildrop to be invoked. You can either

A. use fetchmail to call upon maildrop directory (which will not work in
multidrop mode)

or, alternatively, and what I propose,

B. tell Postfix to invoke maildrop instead.  There are several ways to
do that, and either your Postfix or maildrop configuration would
document ways how to do this.

HTH
