What was the envelope recipient?  What _exactly_ was the bounce message?
You didn't specify either, leaving us to guess.  With the .qmail file above,
I would expect you tested sending to "john-paul.doe@yourdomain", but I've
learned not to assume much on this list.  Also, show us the log entries for
this attempted/failed delivery.

What is the system account name for this user?
