Double check your man page.  Mine is looking in
/etc/courier/maildroprc.  Maybe it's dependent upon which version
you're running.

Run a test mail through it manually, call it test.eml (full email,
with headers, but not with a leading Delivered-To header) :

maildrop -d $localuser -f $remoteuser < test.eml

Look for any output that indicates something is happening that is unexpected.

Let's try eliminating the low hanging fruit.

Although, by default, the global config file is /etc/maildroprc, this can be  
overridden when maildrop gets built.

Check the build configuration for the maildrop package that you are using.

Then check your mail logs. Its entirely possible that the CC cannot be  
delivered, for some reason.

This was a good hint. I tried with verbose mode and...

# maildrop -V20 -d pru00108 -f fgozalo@... < test.eml
maildrop: authlib: groupid=512
maildrop: authlib: userid=512
maildrop: authlib: logname=pru00108, 
home=/home/buzones//interno/p/r/pru00108, 
mail=/home/buzones//interno/p/r/pru00108/Maildir
maildrop: Changing to /home/buzones//interno/p/r/pru00108
Message start at 0 bytes, envelope sender=fgozalo@...
Tokenized cc
Tokenized string: "fgozalo@..."
Tokenized ;
Tokenized eof
maildrop: Delivering to fgozalo@...
maildrop: Flock()ing fgozalo@....
maildrop: Appending to fgozalo@....
maildrop: Delivery complete.
maildrop: Attempting .mailfilter
maildrop: Delivery complete.

So /etc/maildroprc is read, but no message delivered to 
"fgozalo@...".

I need to change the filter

# cat /etc/maildroprc
cc "!fgozalo@..."

to see the behaviour expected:

# maildrop -V20 -d pru00108 -f fgozalo@... < test.eml
maildrop: authlib: groupid=512
maildrop: authlib: userid=512
maildrop: authlib: logname=pru00108, 
home=/home/buzones//interno/p/r/pru00108, 
mail=/home/buzones//interno/p/r/pru00108/Maildir
maildrop: Changing to /home/buzones//interno/p/r/pru00108
Message start at 0 bytes, envelope sender=fgozalo@...
Tokenized cc
Tokenized string: "!fgozalo@..."
Tokenized ;
Tokenized eof
maildrop: Delivering to |/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f '' fgozalo@...
maildrop: Delivery complete.
maildrop: Attempting .mailfilter
maildrop: Delivery complete.

Thanks,
Fernando.
