    make sure authdaemon configuration files are readable by the uid used to
    run maildrop (but also courier, so don't just change the owner).

    to debug authdaemon, set DEBUG_LOGIN=2 in your authdaemonrc file.
    to debug maildrop, run it from the command line with -V option.

    so maildrop asks authdaemon to get infos for this user. but authdaemon
    could not read its configuration files so cannot even know where to
    check users.
