I assume from the `#'s that you did this as root.  Your Maildir needs
to be owned by tmai.  (Assuming Linux; tweak the following commands as
necessary for your system.)
# chown -R tmai.tmai ~tmai/Maildir            # as root

Then, unless you changed the system's default delivery method to be
Maildir instead of mbox, you'll need to do:
$ echo '/home/tmai/Maildir/' > ~tmai/.qmail   # as tmai
