I have qmail and courier and it works perfect for me [on FreeBSD of course], but I do not have vpopmail. I did notice that if your user do not have Maildir folder into his home dir, or the user is not the owner of that folder (you did it by root) you will get the same login problem - for courier! So, can you please check if Maildir exist and 'the user' is the owner! Although this may not be your problem... it is an idea!
