this configuration used to work but after updating to Dovecot 2 (Ubuntu 12.04) mails to mailman get not delivered anymore:
Instead of delivering to mailman, I get a bounce for non-existing user mailinglist@my.host.tld

mm.cfg is also pretty straightforward:
MTA='Postfix' POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['my.host.tld']
Dovecot is configured to authenticate only users via mysql - but the mailman aliases are identical. The domain is a postfix virtual domain.
Any hints where to look? What to test? It used to work with the identical configuration, but now I'm using dovecot-lda from dovecot 2.0 and it does not work anymore, but It can also be a another problem, some configuration change.
