what's in the logs?
Is this with mixed-case usernames or with any username?

Looks ok.
What is your default_mail_env? Should be "default_mail_env = maildir:%h"
  (given that you use maildir and have your folders directly in the home
directory).

> user_query = SELECT CONCAT('/home/vmail/', maildir) AS home, 5000 AS uid, 5000 AS gid FROM mailbox where username = '%u'

looks also fine.

you could even use
SELECT LOWER('/home/vmail/%d/%u/') AS home, ...

And btw, just saw that in 1.0-test you can use use modifiers, e.g. %Lu 
to have a lowercased userid. May be easier to use this with static...
