Package: courier-maildrop
Version: 0.47-4sarge4
Severity: important

When using maildrop and courier with courier's localmailfilter
functionality, maildrop causes courier to return a permanent 511 error
when the user's $HOME/.mailfilters directory returns a 'ETIMEDOUT'
error.

This is the error in /var/log/mail.log:

Mar 31 09:16:44 narn courieresmtpd: error,relay=::ffff:209.132.176.167,
from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: 511 maildrop: Invalid permissions on $HOME/.mailfilters 
-
remove world and group perms.

ls -l ~hozer/.mailfilters
ls: ~hozer/.mailfilters: Connection timed out


This happens when using a network FS for home directories and the
fileserver is temporarily unavailable. This should be returning an
'EX_TEMPFAIL' error, not a permanent error.
