Authlib *is* working (using mysql) and has been working fine
for the 
past 2 years. If I run authtest valid.uservirtual.domain - it returns 
successfully.
My problem isnt with authlib per say but with maildrop using
authlib. 
When I build maildrop and run maildrop -v , Im expecting a
message 
stating either authlib or mysql support available. I get
neither. Also 
if I run maildrop -d valid.uservirtual.domain - the
message "Invalid 
user specified" is returned.

Where in the doco does it say that 'maildrop -v' will return
that 
"either authlib or mysql support available"?

What does yours say? (Bit like getting blood out of a stone,
this ...)

Do you have an /etc/maildroprc? If so, what's in it? (grep
'^[^#]' 
/etc/maildroprc)

Well, that goes without saying ... we need Brian Candler
here, but he's 
not a maildrop aficionado ...
