The mail thing is very confusing, but here is some main.cf settings on
my machine that receives mail from the other machines on the LAN:
inet_interfaces = $myhostname, localhost
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, <my local
hostname> <- the simple name, not the hostname.lan that I've set in
'myhostname'
mynetworks = 192.168.0.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8
Hope that helps,

Not quite, Arve; sorry. Quoting the simple name causes postfix to add ".localdomin" to it.
I'll read the FM as Eray said, which I'd forgotten about.
It seems that you disabled smtp postfix service and you are using
dovecot as the smtp client with postfix smtpd as destination. So your dovecot gives user mails to your postfix and you expect that him relay out.
If postfix has not smtp service it can't rely mail out since it has,
with TURN smtp command, change from smtpd server to smtp client to
connect to externals smtpd server IMHO. I think this is the reason
because you outgoing mail gets inbound mail, because postfix can't act
as smtp client and only server one.
However without dovecot config info and master.cf file I can't confirm
that.
I've attached my master.cf. The only settings I've made in dovecot.conf are:
protocols = imap
listen = *
