Where to begin...
- Daniel, when Mourik told you to reply back to the list, they meant that if they send a reply to the list, then you reply to that, send that reply to the list, not to the person who replied.
Meaning, all replies should go to the list (unless they are merely personal commentary).
Mourik replied to you on the list. You sent your reply back only to him.
You should have replied keeping the thread on the list.
Fyi, dovecot list does not do reply-to-munging - meaning, if you only click the 'Reply' button in your email program, it will only reply to the original sender.
Use the 'Reply-to-list' button (if you have one - ), or click 'Reply-to-all' button and remove the original senders address before sending...
- Why do you have postfix logging in verbose mode?!
Turn that off and repost logs. On the postfix list, you will be told the same thing - normal postfix logging is sufficient for troubleshooting 99.9% of all problems you may run into. Enabling verbose logging only makes things vastly more difficult, hiding the actual problem among all the other noise.
- Why did you post postconf -d output? Just like dovecot, that only shows you the *defaults*. We need to see the actual config you are using.
So, please post output of postconf -n
That will be enough to show you how to fix your problems.
And Mouriks comment was right on point... you probably have to *enable* the dovecot LDA in main.cf. Just having it in master.cf isn't enough, you have to actually turn it on in main.cf, and postconf -n output should show you it is being used.
If you are still having problems after doing all of this, come back and post non-verbose logs exhibiting your problem, and postconf -n output. If you still have a postfix problem, you will likely be directed to the postfix list to pursue further troubleshooting, but a lot of people on this list also use postfix and will likely be able to help you fix the problem if you provide enough of the right information.

All,
Thank you for having this list, and I have a question regarding why postfix is not handing off delivery to Dovecot to virtual users.
Here is all I can offer since I am not at my server:
*Here is the debug information for my postfix setup:*
<snip> irrelevant verbose logging and postconf -d output
*Here is the output of my dovecot -n:*

I hope I provided enough information.
Well at least you posted dovecot -n output.
