Greetings,

The removal of the courier-maildrop package breaks the courier MTA
utilizing the virtual accounts tools. The courier version of maildrop
will import the environment variables: HOME, SHELL, LOGNAME and MAILDIRQUOTA
while the standalone version won't. This behaviour makes the maildrop
can never deliver to the $HOME of the virtual account, rather, it will
deliver to the $HOME to the underlying account.

Cheers,
Difei
