First of all, this is a problem regarding postfix. And this is a
mailinglist about dovecot...

In such cases, we need more information about your configuration. The
best thing you can do is to use the command "postconf -n".

In MY postfix config, I use:
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost, localhost.$mydomain

For virtual domains you can use a parameter called "relay_domains". In
MY config:
relay_domains = hash:${config_directory}/relay_domains

I recommend to post your question to a postfix-mailinglist, including
"postconf -n".

Or use google and search for: workaround.org postfix dovecot
