Sergei Kolobov 4fe7702b93 - Update to the latest version - 1.8.0
- Maildir quota is now enabled by default.
  The following options were deleted:
  - WITH_MAILDIRQUOTA
  - WITH_TRASHQUOTA
- New option WITH_AUTHLIB is added, which provides optional support for
  Courier Auth Library (mail/courier-authlib port).
- Userdb authentication, LDAP and MySQL support are provided through
  courier-authlib now, thus the following options
  - WITH_USERDB
  - WITH_LDAP
  - WITH_MYSQL
  have been superceded by WITH_AUTHLIB.

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
- Unfortunately, when maildrop is compiled using WITH_AUTHLIB knob, the
  resulting binary cannot properly locate libcourierauth.so.0 library:

  yasu@sugar[22]% ldd /usr/local/bin/maildrop
  /usr/local/bin/maildrop:
          libcourierauth.so.0 => not found (0x0)
       	  libstdc++.so.3 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.3 (0x2808e000)
       	  libm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libm.so.2 (0x280d3000)
       	  libc.so.4 => /usr/lib/libc.so.4 (0x280ee000)

  This is because libcourierauth.so.0 is not installed in the standard library
  path of dynamic linker.
  One possible solution is to add '-rpath ${LOCALBASE}/lib/courier-authlib'
  to linker flags. Unfortunately, this breaks the installation procedure.

  A solution to this problem is being actively sought, and I hope it will be
  fixed shortly.

maildrop is a replacement for your local mail delivery agent,
similar to mail/procmail.
- maildrop reads a mail message from standard input,
then delivers the message to your mailbox.
- maildrop will optionally read instructions from a file,
which describes how to filter incoming mail.
Instructions can be provided having mail delivered to
alternate mailboxes, or forwarded somewhere else.
Unlike procmail, maildrop uses a structured filtering language.
- maildrop knows how to deliver mail to mbox-style mailboxes and maildirs.
- maildrop is written in C++, and handles resources more efficiently.
maildrop can be used with sendmail, qmail, and other MTAs.
