There is no mention in the configuration you showed of dovecot at all, nor any transport maps, lmtp, or anything that would indicate you are using dovecot. It appears your mail is being stored as mbox files in /var/spool/mail/ -- My main job is trying to come up with new and innovative and effective ways to reject even more mail. I'm up to about 97% now.

No, it narrows it down to a failure to describe what you expected to happen. Postfix successfully delivered the mail to a local mbox, but that's rarely what you want if you expect to read the mail via Dovecot IMAP. For that you generally want maildir delivery via the Postfix virtual(8) delivery agent, or perhaps via LMTP to Dovecot's LDA. That means that Postfix configuration may be incomplete, messages are delivered, but not where you need them to be delivered to. > > Dec 23 15:07:09 shuttle postfix/local[21640]: B03444A4201: > > to=, > > relay=local, delay=25, delays=25/0.02/0/0.06, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent > > (delivered to mailbox) > > The message was successfully delivered to whichever mailbox root is aliased > to. > The mailbox is in $(postconf -xh mail_spool_directory) under whichever user > root's mail is aliased to.

Re: Mail shows being queued, but not in queue
Hi Mark, just to rule out any misunderstandings: According to the logs you posted, the Postfix local mail delivery (and not dovecot) is used to deliver the mail to some directory on the system. I think that is what Viktor had in mind, when suggesting you look the folder returned by the command he posted: > $(postconf -xh mail_spool_directory) ~~ Max
Re: Mail shows being queued, but not in queue
Okay, sounds like it's not postfix. This narrows it down to dovecot. Thank you again.

I don't drive postfix 3.x but in main.cf I have these settings so that postfix
talks to dovecot:
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp
virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp
and in dovecot I enabled
service lmtp {
unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp {
group = postfix
mode = 0600
user = postfix
}
}

Re: Mail shows being queued, but not in queue
I forgot a couple of things:
Distro: Linux shuttle 5.4.2-desktop-1.mga7 #1 SMP Thu Dec 5 17:40:00 UTC 2019
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Postfix: postfix-3.4.5-1.mga7
Dovecot: 2.3.7.2 (3c910f64b)
I'm looking at dovecot, but not getting any errors there either. I'm looking
for a dovecot support mailing list.
If this is a dovecot issue and someone can point me in a helpful direction for
support, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

Subject: Mail shows being queued, but not in queue
I'm trying to rebuild a server after an upgrade. The mail server did not work
after restoring backup configs, so I have been trying to rebuild it. In the
process I'm moving from cyrus to dovecot. That seems okay, but I'm having real
trouble getting things to happen here. Note that this mail server is here to
move mail on the LAN only, there is no access to anything outside this LAN
required.
I can telnet into all the relevant ports okay. I can openssl into the secured
ports from the server as well as a client machine. Trouble is, I can't actually
send mail from any machine. The user madams is the ID for root in postfix (from
postfix/aliases: root: madams), all other aliases are for root and these are
the only 2 users on the system at this point. I have run newaliases with no
error.
