[Dovecot] Mail does not arrive at my server.

[Wolfgang Paul Rauchholz]

<snip>
1) the mails reach your server at all (check  your postfix logs)
That is my problem, the mails do not get back to my server at all. the
maillog file only shows me the ountgoing mails but nothing which indicates
that a mail from outside is coming.
The only mails I receive are from the linux system as such (background kobs
finished, etc...)

Again, the parameters I set are the following:
myhostname mydomain myorigin inet_interfaces mydestination mynetworks_style 
My firewall (INPUT only) looks like this:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP 0 packets, 0 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source
destination
