We also have systems based in Debian (Squeeze).
After all what has been said it sure looks like a chroot problem.
Could you post the (exact) contents of the following command:
grep 'vmail\|5000' /etc/passwd /etc/group /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
As in Squeeze Postfix runs chrooted, I wonder, did you re-configured
the postfix chroot (see /var/spool/postfix/) and put there all what you
need to avoid chroot problemas while combining Dovecot +Postfix + MySQL?
Finally, are shure that your VPS provider isn't encapsulating in chroot
jails either your private configs in /etc/ or your stuff in /home/ ?
