Sergi... as I see, "/Maildir" is a folder, it has to exist in your path
or you have to configure Courier to look into another different place,
which is not the case :-)
I can be wrong because I have not used Courier before, but this can be
easily tried, just create a new "test" account at:
/home/vmail/Maildir/test@cub3.net/
Restart the daemons, send a message to that account ("To: test@cub3.net"),
try to login and review the logs.
