I saw conflicts in the docs for some of that and what I was doing.  What is
uid 1001 on yours? vmail?

What does Postfix do with virtual_mailbox_base ... or why should it care if
it is passing all deliverables to dovecot/deliver.  I'm not using LDAP, so
that's out.  Auth is via Dovecot, and a test to a non-existant user was
rejected as expected, so it seems the userdb lookup worked.  What does
"virtual_transport = dovecot" mean that ...

mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -c
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-postfix.conf -a "${RECIPIENT}"

... does not?
