w00t. Thanks everyone for all your input. It works now. The key was to set mydestination to "localhost, localhost.localdomain". From there Postfix started using Dovecot LDA (deliver) and I was able to track the rest of the problems down through the log files.

Here's my latest config for anybody interested:
