Hello,

I am trying to get LDA working in conjuction with Postfix, but whenever I activate Dovecot LDA in main.cf and send myself a test messsage, I get an error message in maillog:

[...] May 8 20:47:17 venus postfix/pipe[36077]: 4022B5C38: to=<cb@lim.nl>, orig_to=<colin@lim.nl>, relay=dovecot, delay=0.02, delays=0.01/0/0/0.01, dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (user unknown) [...]

Postfix's virtual LDA has no such problem:

[...] May 8 20:49:39 venus postfix/virtual[36181]: F3DF05C37: to=<cb@lim.nl>, relay=virtual, delay=0.05, delays=0.03/0/0/0.01, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to maildir) May 8 20:49:39 venus postfix/qmgr[36091]: F3DF05C37: removed [...]

Here is the LDA section in dovecot.conf:

protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster@lim.nl mail_plugin_dir = /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lda mail_plugins = cmusieve log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master }

My maildirs are here:

mail_location = maildir:/home/colin/vmail/%u

and Dovecot IMAP has no problem retrieving messages from that location. What might be going wrong with delivery though?

Thanks.
