Hi,

I'm having a problem with dovecot and postfix. I'm using a dovecot version 2.0.13. Postfix (Version: 2.8.5) config is changed according to the http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix:

I have thought to build a virtual user and virtual mailbox, and use the functionality of the Sieve. However, when the test set, the mail not received the mailbox. Record that there was a "temporary failure" in the log of Postfix.

It delivered and to change the "virtual" to "dovecot", I think that's a matter of dovecot.

To ensure that mail is delivered as intended, will How do I? Can anyone give me a hint what to do?
