Your virutal domain users Maildirs are created under
/home/vpopmail/domains/your.domain.name/username.

So, all you need to do to convert a user's mbox to maildir is something like:

 su - vpopmail -c "mbox2mdir /path/to/mbox
/home/vpopmail/domains/your.domain.name/username/Maildir"

Disclaimer: I've just typed this in off the top of my head; it is probably
only valid as a concept - you may run into problems that I have not
thought of! (for example, the vpopmail user may not have a shell set by
default, in which case the su command won't work!)

I hope this gives you some ideas.
