Place that in to e.g.: /etc/dovecot/virtual/INBOX

For pop3 to use virtual mailbox you must use something like:

namespace private {
   prefix = virtual/
   separator = /
   location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual:INDEX=~/virtual
   subscriptions = no
}

list = no here.

Then depending on if user is logging in with imap or pop3, set  
inbox=yes to one of those namespaces. What userdb are you using?  
You'll anyway need to return something like namespace_0_inbox=yes or .. 
1.._inbox=yes
