in my experience this is enough:

Enable LMTP :

protocols = imap lmtp


Create the LMTP Unix socket:


service lmtp {
unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp {
user = postfix
group = postfix
mode = 0600
}
}

Enable required plugins for LMTP delivery:

protocol lmtp {
postmaster_address = postmaster@domainname
mail_plugins {
quota = yes
sieve = yes
}
}

Postfix configuration: main.cf

virtual users:
virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp

system users:
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp
