using "virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:dovecot-lmtp" in main.cf I get

Sep 23 18:38:25 mybox postfix/lmtp[2175]: 7790032064F: to=<
user at mytest.domain.com>, relay=none, delay=525, delays=525/0.02/0/0,
dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to mybox.domain.com[dovecot-lmtp]: No
such file or directory)

i did a search for dovecot-lmtp but Debian is unable to find it.

"locate lmtp" returns the following:

/usr/lib/postfix/lmtp
/usr/local/etc/dovecot/conf.d/20-lmtp.conf
/usr/local/include/dovecot/lmtp-client.h
/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/lmtp
/usr/local/share/doc/dovecot/example-config/conf.d/20-lmtp.conf
/usr/local/var/run/dovecot/lmtp
/usr/share/doc/procmail/examples/local_procmail_lmtp.m4
