I've been having some issues with mail being sent to the local domain being qued - and when I view the mail que, its' showing up two errors -
1. Emails being sent to "root" - come up with the message = "user unknown"
2. Emails being send to user@domain.com from user2@domain.com - where domain.com (is the local domain configured on the server) are coming up with a message = "mail system configuration error"

After a number of hours going through the server log as well as postfix documentation, the problem seems to have resolved now.
What I did - reloaded & restarted the postfix service a number of times, in addition to a single reboot of the server too (to resolve and lingering scripts).

This configuration now seems to work perfectly. Adding "dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1" in the main.cf finally resolved the mail receipt to multiple users on the same domain on the same server.

I encountered the same from past 2-3 days and the solution i found is the same as mentioned above. Adding "dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1" in the main.cf and restarting postfix delivered all mails stuck in the queue.

The detail button on each message in the queue had the error :mail system configuration error"

Technically I don't know what has changed and why do we need this setting now, as it was working just fine before.
