You didn't tell which version of dovecot you want to use or how your auth
config looks like...

With the test/alpha versions, this works fine (using maildir and the users
in a plain text file):

default_mail_env = maildir:%h/./Maildir/

auth default {
 ...
  passdb passwd-file {
    # relative to the chrooted directory!
    args = /passwd
  }

  userdb static {
    args = uid=103 gid=104 home=/var/spool/vmail/%Lu
  }
 ...
