Hard to say without more infromation... 

usually you setup lmtp like:

service lmtp {
  inet_listener lmtp {
    port = 24
  }
}

and put in postfix

virtual_transport = lmtp:inet:127.0.0.1:24

or

relay_transport = lmtp:inet:127.0.0.1:24

or you can unix socket, but i prefer tcp to keep them separate.
