    I installed a virtual mailserver one month ahaid and it worked beautifull.
    Now i removed al about spam and virus detection from it (amavisd-new/clamav/spamassassin, etc..)
    Restartd and surprise, the mails are going to /var/mail/$user, so NOT in /home/vmail/$mydomain/$user.

    Seems maildrop do not work in the /postfix/master.cf like this:
    maildrop unix - n n - - pipe
    flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/bin/maildrop /home/vmail/maildroprc ${user}@${nexthop} ${extension} ${recipient} ${user} ${nexthop}

    I checked and rechecked everything but couldn't find what happen exactly.

    Checked sending a message with m-m@mydomain and it works.

    So could it be a forward problem from the mysql table ?

    Are there any errors in your mail log?

    What exactly did you modify before the problems started?

    No, there are not one error or warning.
    Of course, the messages are delivered to /var/mail/$user.
    Her is part of a message header:
    From [email protected] Mon Oct 22 00:06:30 2007
    Return-Path: <[email protected]>
    X-Original-To: serv@localhost
    Delivered-To: serv@localhost
    Received: from serv.laplaceverte.fr (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1])
    by serv.laplaceverte.fr (Postfix) with ESMTP id D6E8827C9D
    for <serv@localhost>; Mon, 22 Oct 2007 00:06:29 +0200 (CEST)
    Received: from 127.0.0.1
    by serv.laplaceverte.fr with POP3 (fetchmail-6.3.6)

    by mwinb0b06 (SMTP Server) with LMTP; Sun, 21 Oct 2007 21:00:52 +0200

    And now when i send a message from serv.laplaceverte.fr :
    Oct 22 14:09:17 serv postfix/pickup[22244]: B0CAD27CA5: uid=500 from=<serv>
    Oct 22 14:09:17 serv postfix/cleanup[22788]: B0CAD27CA5: message-id=<[email protected]>

    Oct 22 14:09:19 serv postfix/qmgr[22245]: B0CAD27CA5: removed

    And a log when a mail is fetched from my ISP:
    Oct 22 13:59:52 serv postfix/smtpd[22749]: 487ED27C9D: client=localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]
    Oct 22 13:59:52 serv postfix/cleanup[22755]: 487ED27C9D: message-id=<1193054095.4831.3.camel@localhost>
    Oct 22 13:59:52 serv postfix/cleanup[22755]: 487ED27C9D: resent-message-id=<SenkMB.A.B3F.r-IHHB@murphy>
    Oct 22 13:59:52 serv postfix/qmgr[22245]: 487ED27C9D: from=<[email protected]>,
    Oct 22 13:59:52 serv postfix/local[22756]: 487ED27C9D: to=<serv@localhost>, relay=local, delay=0.22, delays=0.14/0.06/0/0.03
    Oct 22 13:59:52 serv postfix/qmgr[22245]: 487ED27C9D: removed

    My forwardings table:
    serv@localhost [email protected]

    There are now several day's i searched what can happen but can't find it.

    Thanks for the reply Falko,
    finally i've reinstalled my /etc/postfile/main.cf exactly and no more as it has to be done on the howto.

    Now the To: in the log file is "serv@localhost.laplaceverte.fr"
    Don't know where it come from; but after added
    "[email protected] [email protected]" to my forwardings table, all goes where i have to get it :)

    And i added to main.cf: (for maildrop delevering)
    alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
    alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
    mailbox_size_limit = 0
    recipient_delimiter = +
    relayhost = [smtp.orange.fr]
    maildrop_destination_recipient_limit = 1
    virtual_transport = maildrop
