No, it narrows it down to a failure to describe what you expected to
happen. Postfix successfully delivered the mail to a local mbox, but
that's rarely what you want if you expect to read the mail via Dovecot
IMAP. For that you generally want maildir delivery via the Postfix
virtual(8) delivery agent, or perhaps via LMTP to Dovecot's LDA.
That means that Postfix configuration may be incomplete, messages
are delivered, but not where you need them to be delivered to.
