The error means just what it says... It can't chdir into the Maildir. 
Here's what you need to do: trace the delivery path.

Check to see if the domain is listed in locals.  If so, then qmail-local
will first look in the alias home directory (/var/qmail/alias) to look for
.qmail files, like .qmail-postmaster.  If this is the case, make sure you
put an appropriate entry in .qmail-postmaster.

If the domain is not in locals, make sure it is in virtual domains, and,
as is the case with vpopmail, the domain's user is setup in
/var/qmail/usrers/assign, and that that directory path is setup, and that
the postmater account exists.   Also make sure that /var/qmail/users/cdb
is up to date by running /var/qmail/bin/qmail-newu.

Going through the above steps should help you understand why qmail-local
can't chdir into the appropriate Maildir.
