And i think this is all normal...
From:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/Proxy
I don't think it is allowed behaviour for Postfix to authenticate on a dovecot
proxy.

I think u can solve the issue using the 2nd point of the Proxy tutorial:
"Let Dovecot proxy perform the authentication and login to remote server using
the proxy's master password"
or moving to sql/ldap userbase.
