Sending an email from the desktop results in the same error:

*Right*. Now we're getting somewhere: it looks like the problem is in your Postfix configuration.
Create a script something like this
#!/bin/sh echo "--- FROM [$1] TO [$2]" >>/tmp/lda-log /usr/bin/id >>/tmp/lda-log /usr/bin/env >>/tmp/lda-log exec /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f "$1" -d "$2"(you may need to adjust the paths to id and env; the point is to avoid relying on $PATH) and change the master.cf entry to invoke
/path/to/script ${sender} ${recipient}instead of dovecot-lda. Then deliver some mail and see what, if anything, gets written to /tmp/lda-log.
Done that, made the script executable, restarted postfix and sent two mails from the desktop. The stuck in the queue, no file lda-log in /tmp.
dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/etc/postfix/script.sh ${sender} ${recipient}
