Well sorry I didnt see that the pop3 doesnt work :) 
By a weird chance you might have lost your execute bit in your vchkpw
program?. Try 
chmod u+x /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw 

By the way you mentioned that you executed
chown -R /home/vpopmail/domains
but well hmm this command has the owner name missing?!
chown -R vpopmail /home/vpopmail/domains
is what you did right?
