How are you calling deliver in postfix? Do you see in postfix's logs the messages being handled to deliver?
Well, I seem to have made the problem worse as I was adjusting settings throughout the day.
Here's where I am at, if I now enable
mailbox_transport = dovecot
I get the following in /var/log/maillog and mail doesn't get delivered

disable that setting in main.cf, restart postfix and flush the queue and all is good again.
This happen's with both the config file I was working on today and also with the one I had yesterday when I started this thread.
Looks like I was getting this yesterday too, but slightly different

Although I suspect that was when I had enabled the transport changes in master.cf just for testing purposes. The logs show connection refused stuff only happening today. Googling's coming up with squat.
