Looking at your config, I notice
virtual_transport = virtual

However according to http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix:
main.cf:
dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1
virtual_mailbox_domains = your.domain.here
virtual_transport = dovecot

master.cf:
dovecot   unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe
   flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail 
argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f ${sender} -d ${recipient}

But again, I'm new to all this. Here postfix/dovecot/virtual works fine, 
and all I did was follow the docs.
