OK, user is unknown - you've commented out local_recipient_maps so the
default value is

  local_recipient_maps = proxy:unix:passwd.byname $alias_maps

Is the user "contact" existent in /etc/passwd? If you use your domain
in mydestination then Postfix tries to find the user in /etc/passwd or
/etc/aliases. If the user is not found then the above error is logged.
