The maildrop is started as the user 'foo' by a line in a file ~foo/.forward,
as you say:

maildrop -d foo

and this '-d foo' is IMHO completely superfluous, because the maildrop could do
by its own a getuid(2) and a user 'foo' will never run (and perhaps can
not run due to lack of permissions) something like '-d bla'.

Do you copy me?
