maildrop itsself is only available in server:mail (+ home repos), so 
just moving maildrop-maildirutils to Factory is pointless. In fact, both 
packages are built from the same source and spec file.

The interesting point is that the courier-imap also contains the 
maildirutils. Maybe the best solution would be to split the utils off 
the courier-imap package and then just keep one instance of them (either 
build from courier-imap or from maildrop).

Huh? What about the maildrop-maildirutils package mentioned above and in 
my previous mail?
You will still need courier-authdaemon (maildrop uses it to look up user 
quotas etc.), but you won't need the courier-imap (POP3 and IMAP daemon) 
package.
