Hi all there, I have a postfix/dovecot environment running with ldap authentication.
I am able to deliver e-Mails to the internet and also receive them via fetchmail.
I have a pure local domain (av.loc). Just for internal purpuse.
For all mails where destination is a local mailbox, as for all of the local domain, delivery does not work.
Here I can show some logs of such a process:

I have configured my thunderbird to have a username to authenticate against ldap.
In the first steps above the authentication of the sender works.
But then, when delivering to the receiver, dovecot uses the e-Mail address of the receiver to check the password.
I do not know why dovecot chechs the password of the receiver before delivery.
I do neither know where to switch that off or set some changes in the configuration to avoid that process. Probably it is correct? But anyhow, the setup ldap-procedure just checks the username and no e-Mail address.

As always, I would appreciate some hints. Thanks in advance.
