When mail is relayed to dovecot from postfix, I am getting this error message
in the maillog:

Jul  1 07:05:19 scorpio postfix/pipe[45488]: 3h2jQl3Xldz3FMPc: to=<user at domain.com>, relay=dovecot, delay=0.16, delays=0.12/0.01/0/0.03, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: lda: Error: user user at domain.com: Error reading configuration: Invalid settings: postmaster_address setting not given lda: Fatal: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. )

Is this a Postfix problem or a Dovecot problem?
