Hi.
I don't have expirience with mbox Mailbox format in qmail,
but check /var/qmail/rc file if there is right delivery Mailbox format. 

see documentation on
http://www.lifewithqmail.org/lwq.html#start-qmail
section about Mailbox format, and section about directory and file 
permisions of qmail delivery.
because in Maildir format, qmail will deliver message only if chmod of 
home/Maildir is 700, check it in mbox format ?? 

remote to local delivers works ?
which MTA you used before ? 

maybe /var/qmail/users/assign file could help you. 

I'm using nice install guide with vpopmail on
http://matt.simerson.net/computing/qmail.toaster.shtml
it works only with one system account and can manage many virtual domains
and virtual users.
works fine :) for me. 

I hope it will help you.
Have a nice day.
Jiri.
