[Dovecot] spamassassin, postfix with dovecot lda?

Hello Nicolas,

I tried the mailbox_transport = dovecot directive, with no luck, since I 
was using virtual mailboxes, where virtual_transport is responsible for 
delivery. What really helped, though, was the dovecot line in master.cf, 
which after a few tweaks allowed me to make things work eventually!

Thank you again for your help,
