i'm using a setup with postfix+mysql+maildrop (on FreeBSD6.1), using
the following :

# cat /etc/postfix/main.cf|grep maildrop
virtual_transport = maildrop
setgid_group = maildrop
maildrop_destination_recipient_limit = 1

# cat /etc/postfix/master.cf|grep maildrop
# maildrop. See the Postfix MAILDROP_README file for details.
# Also specify in main.cf: maildrop_destination_recipient_limit=1
maildrop unix - n n - - pipe
  flags=DRhu user=vmail argv=/usr/local/bin/maildrop -d ${recipient}

# cat /usr/local/etc/maildroprc
# Specify the log file for Maildrop - in the user's directory.

logfile "mailfilter-log.txt"

log "========"

if (/^X-Spam-Flag:.*YES/)
{
    exception {
        to $DEFAULT/.Junk/
}
}

in my case all folders are owned by user vmail

and maildrop can be run in debug-mode to figure out more,
and .. as a reminder: maildrop won't create non-existing mailfolders for you
