I destroyed the domain and recreate it on the shell and in qmailadmin without success. User can authenticate in the webmail (squirrelmail, IMAP, dovecot).

Could be it is linked to a old vpopmail library, before important changes... or something else like that (like not opening vpopmail.mysql). With that change (delete instead of bounce), you are excluding chkuser except chkuser logging. Double check your configuration, because bounce is better than delete.

delete is bad. You want bounce-no-mailbox. The delete setting
accepts mail to bad recipients and silently drops it. It makes
spammers think they're getting through to your users. You will get
dictionary attacked. bounce-no-mailbox will reject during the SMTP
session, no mail data will be transferred, and the spammer will give up.
Thanks for this explaination.
I think I'll have to take my chkuser configuration from start.
that's not a problem : I'm currently installing the replacement for this one ;-)
