Email vanishes into the nothing, big problem

Email vanishes into the nothing [fixed]

New server, completely setup with DA, exim and dovecot as always.
For some strange reason, email does not appear in the inbox of the users but just vanishes into the nothing.

This is the exim mainlog:

2012-03-29 14:21:04 1SDELg-0007TT-BU <= [email protected] H=ns1.otherdomain.nl (server.otherdomain.nl) [78.46.xx.xx] P=esmtps X=TLSv1:AES256-SHA:256 S=1052 id=B20C777FB4C24F61860DCCE14A8A0FC1@pcxp T="test" from <[email protected]> for [email protected]
2012-03-29 14:21:04 cwd=/var/spool/exim 3 args: /usr/sbin/exim -Mc 1SDELg-0007TT-BU
2012-03-29 14:21:04 1SDELg-0007TT-BU => user <[email protected]> F=<[email protected]> R=virtual_user T=virtual_localdelivery S=1215
2012-03-29 14:21:04 1SDELg-0007TT-BU Completed

Completed it says, so no funny things.
All domainnames in /var/spool/mail are 0 bytes big.

This is the content of /etc/virtual/targetdomain.nl/dovecot.bytes:

66=type=pop&inbound=12&outbound=54&[email protected]&log_time=1333023428
66=type=pop&inbound=12&outbound=54&[email protected]&log_time=1333023703

Looks also good.

But no mail is to be found.
Accounts were restored from another server, but I can't imagine that it has something to do with that.

How can I fix this?

Problem fixed.
Seems for some reason, accounts which were on the old server already converted to dovecot, were not made the same when restoring on the new server, not even after rebuilding dovecot.

However, I found the solution here:

The "todovecot' did the trick, all is working well again.
