Not much information for us to go on here, but I'm guessing that you
expect the recipient to be a virtual mailbox domain and postfix
thinks it's a local domain.
Don't use virtual mailbox domains in mydestination or myhostname.

unsolicited advice: catchall addresses were useful once upon a time,
but these days usually get around to biting you in the nether
regions. Save yourself future trouble and get rid of the catchall.

Thanks for the advice. I've been going nuts tonight try to make it work.
I'm using lmtp with dovecot. It appears postfix pays no attention to
vmailbox when using lmtp. I tried local_recipient_maps = and
luser_relay = catchall@<mydomain> without any luck! dovecot doesn't seem
to have anything similar to @example.com.
So, if it's not useful, or even will bite me, I can save myself some
hours tonight!
