Well...

If you never use the Postfix virtual to deliver Mail, you can omit
virtual_gid_maps = static:1234
virtual_mailbox_base = /var/vmail
virtual_minimum_uid = 1001
virtual_uid_maps = static:1234
since these setting are not used by Dovecot-LDA.

Furthermore, I could imagine an entry in your transport-table, which
redirects this mailaddress/domain to virtual, or the entry in your
postfix/master.cf, which defines another virtual transport for the
return from amavisd-new.

I don't see an error in your configfiles (that doesn't necessarily mean
that there aren't any...) and I use Postfix && amavisd-new &&
Dovecot-LDA with a similar configuration (I use LDAP instead of SQL for
the lookups, but that shouldn't bother). So, this combination is known
to work.

Greetings
