This is what I have defined concerning mydomain.tld and cat :

defaultdomain: mydomain.tld

esmtpacceptmailfor.dir/jc: localhost mydomain.tld .mydomain.tld

There's no need to put "localhost" in that file. It's not a valid domain, and courier won't accept mail for it, even if it's listed.

locals: localhost omallet mydomain.tld omallet.mydomain.tld

Here, again, localhost and omallet aren't valid in DNS, so they don't need to be listed.

- The catchall (to cat) works perfectly - mail to ca@miaou.mydomain.tld works perfectly - mail to ca@mydomain.tld is delayed most of the time

It is unlikely that mail to cat@miaou works perfectly. Your earlier messages indicated that messages are deferred with the error "Connection timed out". You need to find out why connections time out to that system, and correct that problem. Until that is fixed, Courier will delay mail in order to suppress backscatter.

Check the logs on "miaou" and make sure it's not reaching its maximum number of connections during the periods when Courier reports that connections time out. If that information isn't logged, you'll have to monitor the number of open connections yourself to see if that is the problem.
