Both postfix and dovecot are very careful to record in the log what happens to messages; if they say they delivered a message it was delivered. No amount of misconfiguration can break that. Read the log carefully to make sure messages are delivered to where you expect them to be delivered. > > But messages disappear.

Another possibility is your file system is broken in some manner, and falsely claims files are saved when they aren't. Run fsck a few times to see if any errors are found to eliminate that possibility. -- Noel Jones
