Please stop top-posting.

Qmail‽

Fist configure a 'master socket', so deliver will be able to
perform user lookups. see http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA#Virtual_users

Then save a message as /tmp/testmail
Finally execute:

/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d <recipient> -f <envelopesender> </tmp/testmail

Don't forget to check your logs.

Pascal
