Let's separate the problem, to set the base clear (a) postfix does SMTP and (b) dovecot does POP3 and IMAP. Both are unrelated vis-a-vis their respective functionality. >From your subject line the problem is with your postfix setup. Therefore showing logs about dovecot is does not throw any light on your postfix problem. Suggest you read through some of the stuff here <http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html> if you have not done so already. Suggest that you increase debug verbosity such that postfix logs debug data. If this is an academic/R&D type exercise and you are using example.com as your test domain, then I suggest that you set up a "local" DNS server with a MX, NS, A, and PTR records pointing to "localhost" to completely resolve *all* records for example.com *within* your box.
