I'm currently trying to set up Postfix with Dovecot, but something does not seem to work the way it should be.

For some reason, mails I sent to my mail account appear in the logs, but do not become relocated into the respective mailbox. The logs are not displaying any error, so I am pretty much left without a clue where the problem might be. Additionally, I have not set up any of the servers at any point, so I can't really tell what I might be missing here.

Hope you guys can give me a hint.

Edit: I'm also using a frontend webinterface which lets me log in, but no mails can be displayed in its interface either.

Here is the solution that worked for me:

In Postfix' main.cf located in /etc/postfix/main.cf I needed to set

local_transport = virtual

and

virtual_transport = dovecot

Now mails actually become delivered as well.
