Description Phillip Merensky 2010-01-20 11:43:28 UTC
The stable version 5.4.16 of vpopmail did not longer compile so I tried the keyword masked ones. 
After emerging vpopmail >=5.4.19 with maildrop useflag I got "delivery 595: deferral: /bin/sh:_preline:_command_not_found/" errors within the qmail-send log. 



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge >=net-mail/vpopmail-5.4.19 with USE=maildrop
2. grep preline /var/log/qmail/qmail-send/current
3.

Actual Results:  
"delivery 595: deferral: /bin/sh:_preline:_command_not_found/" errors within the qmail-send logand thus no correct mail delivery!!


Expected Results:  
no errors

To resolve this issue I linked "preline" into /usr/bin (lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 20. Jan 11:20 /bin/preline -> /var/qmail/bin/preline).

After the linking I got "delivery 7: failure: preline:_usage:_preline_cmd_[_arg_..._]/" errors in the qmail log. 
This made me think that something in vpopmail must have changed which is why I checked the source. 

vpopmail-5.4.16 does not contain preline in its sources at all whereas versions >= 5.4.19 contain this code lines in vdelivermail.c:
#ifdef MAILDROP
      if ( limits.disable_maildrop==0 && vpw!=NULL &&
           !(vpw->pw_gid & NO_MAILDROP) ) {
        sprintf(maildrop_command, "| preline %s", MAILDROP_PROG);
        run_command(maildrop_command);
        DeleteMail = 1;
        return(0);
      }
#endif

It seems that MAILDROP_PROG is undefined.

please try if this is still an issue with 5.4.30-r1 and reopen this bug with ${S}/config.h attached
