What version of vpopmail?  What were your configuration options?

What is the home directory of the vpopmail user on your server?  (grep 
vpopmail /etc/passwd)

vadddomain, on a default install, will try to create the domain as

~vpopmail/domains/frenchclasses.com

It appears that the home directory entry in /etc/passwd is incorrect.  
It hsould probably be something like /home/vpopmail or, in your case, 
/var/qmail/vpop.
