You don't understand. The IMAP server is not a Postfix transport. You
are asking local(8) to deliver mail to a "dovecot" transport, which
is most likely missing from master.cf or not working. In any case,
"AAAAAA" won't be delivered to the mail spool with this in place.

Dovecot delivery is failing for your account.
