Greetings from a new dovecot user.
Have setup dovecot on openSuse 15.4 with postfix as the MTA. Both are
the latest version in that distribution.
Simple virtual user setup using /etc/dovecot/passwd
Dovecot seems to be working and all the defined users are authenticating
well enough for imapsync to migrate files to the mailboxes.
However, when attempting to send test mail via postfix, only some users
are authenticated and have mail delivered. Using swaks (smtp toolkit)
the failures are: 550 5.1.1 <some.user(a)mydomain.com>: Recipient address
rejected: User unknown in local recipient table
I'm puzzled, probably some simple thing overlooked. To avoid clutter, I
won't include postfix items unless asked.
dovecot --version 2.3.20 (80a5ac675d)
dovecot -n
