I'm running Debian 7.1, Postfix version 2.9.6, Dovecot Version 2.1.7
To set it up I followed mostly this (without the spamass-clamav-greylist bit)
I have also got setup smart host relaying via gmail

postconf -n reveals:

alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
append_dot_mydomain = no
biff = no
config_directory = /etc/postfix
inet_interfaces = all
inet_protocols = ipv4
mailbox_size_limit = 0
milter_default_action = accept
mydestination = MyDomain, localhost.net, localhost
myhostname = MyDomain.net
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
myorigin = /etc/mailname
readme_directory = no
recipient_delimiter = +
relay_domains = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_relay_domains.cf
relayhost = [smtp.gmail.com]:587
smtp_connect_timeout = 120s
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/relay_passwd
smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache

smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtpd_scache
smtpd_use_tls = yes
virtual_alias_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_alias_maps.cf
virtual_gid_maps = static:3000
virtual_mailbox_base = /home/vmail

virtual_mailbox_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_mailbox_maps.cf
virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:private/lmtp
virtual_uid_maps = static:3000

I am able to send emails to the outside world but all emails sent to me are getting stuck.

mailq is showing numerous lines:

A69C2414C4     2621 Fri Dec 27 14:57:03  [email protected]
(conversation with MyDomain.net[private/lmtp] timed out while receiving the initial server greeting)
                                         [email protected]

                                         [email protected]

/var/log/mail.log is showing:

Dec 28 09:50:09 hostname postfix/lmtp[10828]: E947C414CD: to=<[email protected]>, relay=localhost[private/lmtp], delay=64012, delays=63712/0.25/300/0, dsn=4.4.2, status=deferred (conversation with localhost[private/lmtp] timed out while receiving the initial server greeting)</code>

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

OK. I found the fix to my problem - I changed this line in postfix cofig:

virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp
