How do I get the LMTP-server to know which mailbox's are locally hosted and return SMTP code 450 if delivery is attempted to a non local user?
You can't, at least that way. Why are you trying to deliver mails to a non-local mailbox? You could anyway use Dovecot as LMTP proxy to the remote LMTP server and it would deliver the mail there without an error.
I was wondering if I could skip running a Postfix or other MTA along with dovecot and just let mail be delivered directly to the final host by LMTP. It's no problem to have Postfix do a virtual_mailbox_domains lookup before handing it to local LMTP, but it would be simpler with only Dovecot.
I can see that a lookup in the userdb is done, but now matter what I return (1/111) from my checkpassword script I just get:
Set lmtp_proxy=yes and have passdb lookup return proxy=y and host=1.2.3.4.
But how does the LMTP proxy deal with temporary errors? It has no queue like the SMTP-server ?
