[Bug 571926] [NEW] dovecot-postfix initial setting in postfix-main.cf wrong

Public bug reported:

the installation of dovecot-postfix inserts '/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -c
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/dovecot.conf -n -m "${EXTENSION}"' into main.cf of
the postfix config file as the 'mailbox command'.  Unfortunately the
config file location that dovecot defaults to is
/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf. The /etc/dovecot/conf.d folder is empty. This
causes postfix to produce fatal errors and not deliver mail to
mailboxes.

I manually edited my /etc/postfix/main.cf after the install to read 
'mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf -n -m "${EXTENSION}"'
and  it works perfectly afterwards.

Thanks
