dovecot - Nov 2013 - postfix and dovecot - no emails in new folder

Hi.

I am working on setting up  Dovecot v2.0.9 and postfix  2.6.6 on centos 
6.4. I have postfix configured with dovecot using virtual users. 
Everything seems to be working with the exception of no emails being 
delivered to the Maildir/new folder. If I touch a file into that folder 
then the file gets delivered to the email client using imap.

I can also send email from the client with no problems. In fact if I 
look at the logs postfix says the email was delivered to the mailbox.

  postfix/virtual[27270]: 8652F35C38A8: to=<user at domain.tld>, 
relay=virtual, delay=0.11, delays=0.1/0.01/0/0, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent 
(delivered to mailbox)$

Here is my dovecot -n output

doveconf -n > dovecot-new.conf**

Any thoughts?

Are you sure, postfix delivers to the maildir of Dovecot? I would 
reconfigure Postfix to use Dovecot LDA or LMTP.

You probably need to set dovecot as the Local Delivery Agent, like so:

	$ grep mailbox /etc/postfix/main.cf
	mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver
