Please search the mail log for errors. Does the MX record of your domain points correctly to your server domain?

There is some feeback from postfix:

Reporting-MTA: dns; UNKNOWN
X-Postfix-Queue-ID: 1CF21BEA5
X-Postfix-Sender: rfc822; info@domain-c.de
Arrival-Date: Sun, 9 Apr 2006 15:38:28 +0200 (CEST)

Final-Recipient: rfc822; web23_test@domain-a.de
Original-Recipient: rfc822; web23_test@domain-b.de
Action: failed
Status: 5.0.0
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; mail for web23_test@domain-a.de loops back to myself

Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; mail for web23_test@domain-a.de loops back to myself

Please add domain-a.de at the end of /etc/postfix/local-host-names and restart Postfix:

/etc/init.d/postfix restart

Run

dig mx yourdomain.com

to check if the MX record is correct.
