This is a fresh install, I haven't changed anything except adding mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf
the mail transfer agent (postfix) needs a mail delivery agent for locally delivered mail, in traditional email systems this was often procmail or fetchmail. dovecot is a mail client, although it contains an optional local delivery agent. a bit of googling found http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix
This is incorrect. Postfix comes with it's own lda (local(8)) which fills this role. It is true that it can use a 3rd party lda but it is not necessary.
To the OP:
Set: "home_mailbox = Maildir/" in main.cf.
