* Postfix newbie alert *
I'm trying to set it up so that I can have e-mail addresses that are not
tied to my FreeBSD system accounts. I'd like to have it pull the list of
recipients/domains from plain text files, and then I'll set up Dovecot to
retrieve mail via POP3/IMAP. The mailboxes should be stored in Maildir
format.
Right now, I can telnet in and send an e-mail using MAIL FROM, RCPT TO,
DATA, but I don't know where that e-mail ends up. Nothing ever shows up in
/home/vmail (i.e. no directories are created, and no e-mails get dumped
there that I can see).
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

So, I have a /usr/local/etc/postfix/vmaps which looks like this (and I
used postmap /usr/local/etc/postfix/vmaps to build a vmaps.db file out of
it):
----------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] domain1.com/info/
[EMAIL PROTECTED] domain2.com/keith/
----------------------------------------
I have a directory named /home/vmail user/group vmail 5000:5000. I have
not created any directories in this folder, I don't know if I need to or
not... I saw something somewhere about using makemaildir.dovecot, but I
don't have that script/binary on my FreeBSD system anywhere.
I have a /usr/local/etc/postfix/vhosts file which looks like:
----------------------------------------
domain1.com
domain2.com
----------------------------------------
I can telnet to port 25 and send an e-mail. I don't know where that e-mail
goes. If I run postqueue -p it shows nothing in the queue. If I run mailq,
I can see the e-mails but I can't tell what it's doing with them (and I
don't really know anything about the mailq command).
Here's my main.cf file:
