My question now: Is it correct that then I cannot longer use maildrop and would need to switch do dovecot-lda?
Yes, only dovecot-lda and Dovecot's lmtp are able to store messages in mailboxes using dbox format. But both can use the sieve plugin for mail filtering.

Thanks much. That is what I thought.
I tried to figure out how to use dovecot-lda and sieve. The most difficult part was to find documentation how to code the sieve file. But I got it working.
The next question is how to incorporate bogofilter?
The only way I figured out to do that was to have a small script like this:
#! /bin/sh
/usr/bin/bogofilter -u -e -p | /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -a manfred
and to name that script as mda in fetchmail's .fetchmailrc file.
Is there a better way?
