I'm using Postfix and Dovecot 2.0.19 and Virtual domains & users

Dovecot LMTP for delivery. However, the Sender and Date are essentially
null when viewing the email with either the POP3 or IMAP client. The
logs (below) show this. I changed the sender and recipient addresses
for privacy.

You can see that Postfix accepts the incoming mail (from
[email protected]) and then the message is handed to Dovecot LMTP. But
the from=: should be "[email protected]:".
Postfix / qmgr has the sender listed (from=<[email protected]>) but no
sender (from=) is seen in LMTP log output. My LMTP is setup to use UNIX
sockets, not the INET socket.
Any help is appreciated.
1) Where is your Postfix conf, one can comment on?
2) The message-id is empty or absent, did you _verified_, that the message
contains "From" and "Date" headers at all? I guess it does not contain
them either.
So, no client can display missing information.
Postfix's "from" is the envelope from, that is storred in the Return-Path
header in the message the client retrieves.
