OK, so logging in general works.

A clue that vpopmail or qmail-popup fails after authenticating
successful.

Keep in mind this file logs your username+password additionally to
what's read from 'vpasswd.cdb', so before providing a complete file
create a dummy domain and a dummy account and test with these data.
Alternatively you can think about trusting me and sending this
strace-log privately :-) Just don't spread your real data on this list,
it's archived :-)
