Mr. Timo,
I would presume you are busy with many responsibilities, but might you
have a few minutes to consider this problem?
Or is there any other Dovecot expert who may be able to offer advice
on how to get the home directories created? Thank you for those who
have helped offer advice on this already.
Tried your config here and it works. My debug log looks as follows for
the first brief IMAP session:

Took me a few tries to get this working though. You need to configure
the permissions of /vmail correctly. Are you sure you're looking in the
correct log file for finding errors?
You can execute the following to find out:
$ sudo doveadm log find

Hello,
I spent the afternoon troubleshooting this, and after hours, I still
can't see what I'm missing.
On the older version of Dovecot (2.2) it worked fine to create a new
user, then Dovecot would create the home folder under the maildir
folder as outlined in the documentation, simply by creating a new
user in the database, and opening the new user account in the mail
client.
