[Dovecot] I can not receive any mail

[Felix Rubio Dalmau]

Hi everybody

	I'm trying to set-up an IMAPS mail server using dovecot (version 2.1.7) 
with virtual email accounts for my family. I have already ran through the mysql 
phase of the virtual email configuration (and I'm quite confident it works well, 
because I can send mails from the server using postfix to gmail, e.g.).

	However, I am stucked configuring dovecot. I don't know why is it not 
running properly. The symptoms are:

	a) When I connect by using my mail client (kmail), I don't get any error.
	b) When I ask kmail to check what authentication services are supported by 
the server, I see that it is able to connect to te server by looking to the 
server log.
	c) However, Inbox folder does never show up :S
	d) When I send any mail from gmail to my server, It is always refused under 
the reason that there is not such user in the machine (I am sure it is), and 
nothing shows up in the server log.

	Here is my configuration, just in case somebody can give it a look to help 
me figure out what's going on :S

	Thank you very much in advance.
