In my /var/log/mail.log I saw the following error:

In order to fix this execute the following commands:

 # sudo su cyrus

This will make you the cyrus user.

delay=593, delays=593/0.02/0.01/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred

I Googled the error but could not find a fix. Finally it turned out that the postfix user was not in the mail group, which could be fixed by executing

 # adduser postfix mail
