I've went through the article below step by step in order to make Postfix up and running on Ubuntu 14.04:
PostfixVirtualMailBoxClamSmtpHowto
Now in the step where it says to use mail command to send email I send it. The command I enter:
root@myDomain# mail [email protected]
Subject: test subj
test it
.
Cc:
Now I should have a new folder as below:
/home/vmail/mydomain/info/new
I cannot see such an email. I can telnet to 25 port:
root@mydomain:~# telnet localhost 25
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

Postfix server is running. The /var/log/mail.log says:

The below parameters are the one I've added to main.cf:
home_mailbox = Maildir/
virtual_mailbox_domains = /etc/postfix/vhosts
virtual_mailbox_base = /home/vmail
virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/vmaps
virtual_minimum_uid = 1000
virtual_uid_maps = static:5000
virtual_gid_maps = static:5000
I have added MX record if that helps.
What should I do now? I couldn't think of something that I've done wrong? What I'm missing?
EDIT:
The below command query info user:
postmap -q [email protected] hash:/etc/postfix/vmaps
it outputs:
mydomain.com/info/
I removed all the domain in front of mydestination =. Now mail.log says:

BUT inside of ~/Maildir is empty. There is not folder named mydomain/info. There 3 folders named: tmp, new, cur. Now what is happening?
unknown user: "info".ls -laor justls?virtual_mailbox_base = /home/vmail. so I was looking in a wrong place~/Maildir!
