If you always override it in userdb, it doesn't matter if you have it or
not.

Not related to your problem, but I'd change that to:

user_attrs = sAMAccountName=home=/var/vmail/%$

and then in dovecot.conf use:
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir

because http://wiki.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home

Looks ok.

Dovecot requests sAMAccountName and quotaMail fields from LDAP.

But LDAP returns only sAMAccountName, not quotaMail field. So either
that field doesn't exist in LDAP or it doesn't exist for this user or
the DN you use to access LDAP doesn't have permissions to it. Or
something else, in any case the problem isn't with Dovecot
configuration.
