I'm using Dovecot with Postfix as my MTA

I need to set up forwarding with Dovecot. I create a .forward file in my user's home directory, and in the .forward file I put destination_email_address email@example.com.

Well, it got delivered to the forwarded email just fine. But the sender also got an undeliverable email from the dovecot mailbox and a copy was not saved in the dovecot mailbox. I need emails forwarded, and a copy saved in the dovecot mailbox.

Thanks in advance for the help!

You're asking in the wrong place. We're a support forum for the DirectAdmin webhosting control panel, and we don't use Postfix.

DirectAdmin (using exim) does allow you to deliver to both forwards and local mailboxes, but many other solutions do not.
