I have set up Postfix / Dovecot on Centos a number of time, a few
weeks ago I set up a Debian server with Postfix / Dovecot and it went
fine. I'm doing the same again today but keep getting bounces when
sending to any virtual domain on the new server, with the error:
Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table (in
reply to RCPT TO command)
The virtual users are set up in /etc/postfix/virtual-mailbox as
normal; e-mail address then a space then the domain. I have run
postmap /etc/postfix/virtual-mailbox to create the db file
successfully.
This is the result of postconf -n showing my config changes:

I can see no other errors in the logs just the same error:
Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table.
Although it's possible I still haven't got Clam AV / Amavis and
Dovecot setup 100% correctly yet, this reject seems like a purely
Postfix problem.
I can connect to the account's mailbox by the way, so Dovecot appears
to be working.
I have now uninstalled Postfix and done a full re-install only to get
the same problem. I have tried copying the working config files from
the other working Debian server and again the same problem. There are
no other errors being log on the system that give any clue to this
problem.
Thanks in advance.
