Well, that looks OK to me; but the only way to test it is to manually run dovecot-lda as vmail. Is there an auth-userdb socket in your dovecot sockets directory? Does it have the right permissions?
No, no such socket in /var/run/dovecot
I just found out the sockets of dovecot reside in /usr/var/run/dovecot

the auth-userdb is there and vmail is the owner. What problem do I have that dovecot-lda does not find the users?
