Public bug reported: the installation of dovecot-postfix inserts '/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -c /etc/dovecot/conf.d/dovecot.conf -n -m "${EXTENSION}"' into main.cf of the postfix config file as the 'mailbox command'. Unfortunately the config file location that dovecot defaults to is /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf. The /etc/dovecot/conf.d folder is empty. This causes postfix to produce fatal errors and not deliver mail to mailboxes.
I manually edited my /etc/postfix/main.cf after the install to read 'mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf -n -m "${EXTENSION}"' and it works perfectly afterwards.
