Hmm, your conf contains just one passdb and one userbd:

mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir

sieve = 
file:/home/vmail/%d/%n/sieve;active=/home/vmail/%d/%n/.dovecot.sieve

userdb {
   args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir
   driver = static
}

So, how does the real user authentificate?

Second, you've violated:
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home?highlight=%28home%29|%28mail%29

make home and mail_location distinct. I guess, above should read:
home=/home/vmail/%d/%n/

You've wrote "managesieve" is not working. That means, sieve is working?
So, has vmail write permission to : /home/vmail/%d/%n/sieve is it a 
directory? Does your users log into managesieve with domain, too?
