I know that was my thought too! But below are the fields in mysql, and
there are also no logs being entered to give me hints at what might be
wrong. It isnt logging to debug, but it DOES if I run the dovecot-lda
from the command line??

home: /mail/mail2/b/olypen.com/brandon
maildir: maildir:~/maildir:INDEX=~/maildir/dovecot-index

and dovecot-sql.conf-ext
# Password query
password_query = SELECT 8 AS userdb_uid, \
8 AS userdb_gid, \
password, \
CONCAT(username, '@', domain) AS user, \
mail_pop.home AS userdb_home, \
mail_pop.maildir AS userdb_mail, \
CONCAT('*:storage=', quota, 'M') AS quota_rule, \
'~/dovecot.sieve' AS userdb_sieve \
FROM `auth` LEFT JOIN (mail_pop) ON (mail_pop.user_id = auth.user_id)
WHERE username = '%n' AND domain = '%d' AND mail_pop.status =
'enabled' LIMIT 1

# User query
user_query = SELECT mail_pop.home AS home, \
mail_pop.maildir AS mail, \
8 AS uid, \
8 AS gid, \
CONCAT('*:storage=', quota, 'M') AS quota_rule, \
'~/dovecot.sieve' AS sieve \
FROM `auth` LEFT JOIN (mail_pop) ON (mail_pop.user_id = auth.user_id)
WHERE username = '%n' AND domain = '%d' AND mail_pop.status =
'enabled' LIMIT 1

And the directory:
server:/mail/mail2/b/olypen.com/brandon# ls -al
total 8
