Author SMTP Drop Directory

I have a default SMTP Server with the standard inetpub drop directory. I
have a .net application that is ONLY dropping mail into
e:\smtp\dropdirectory. This directory is not specified in the SMTP Server
setup anywhere. The drop directory is set to d:\inetpub...

Mail is being processed and sent from the e:\ drop directory. Can anyone
tell me why? My scripts don't actually send the mail. How can this be? I
ask because I'm segmenting my email list and sending from different virtual
SMTP servers so that I can get better reporting from GoodMail and
BondedSender. I have just about 3.2 Spamcop complaints per million and I'm
trying to get to 1 per million.

Anyone know how this drop directory stuff works?

I figured it out. metabase.xml. I have the drop directory set differently
from the queue. Thanks.
