This is not the case with Courier installed as FreeBSD port. Here,
reformime is in /usr/local/bin and maildrop finds it. To check, I tried
reformimes in maildrop script, a not existing program, and there was
line telling

sh: reformimes: not found

in log file as expected. With reformime in script, there is no such
message in log.

Creating file acc with some accented characters, so

% cat acc
ľšťž

and executing

% reformime -o "`cat acc`" | hd
00000000  0a                                                |.|
00000001

points to reformime itself being the culprit... Could this be
eventually some issue being fixed in newer version? I have Courier
suite 1.1.4 installed and Courier Unicode library 2.2.4, if that's
relevant.
