Sounds like there's a problem with that account's Maildir.
Use vuserinfo to see what the home directory is set to. su to vpopmail and see if you can get to that directory. Make sure there are three directories, new, cur and tmp in there. Compare the permissions and ownership to another user's Maildir that is working correctly.

The permissions in this dir are:

drwx------ 3 vpopmail vchkpw 512 Oct 26 00:27 . drwx------ 9 vpopmail vchkpw 512 Jan 12 15:22 .. drwx------ 8 vpopmail vchkpw 512 Jan 19 08:29 Maildir -rw------- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 12 Jan 19 09:31 lastauth
