Andreas,

Why you use phpmyadmin for such simple tasks beats me:-)

Anyway, if you run the same SQL syntax I have and replaced www-data with
vexim and then reflect the same user in variables.php, you should be fine.
The reason you cannot receive mail is perhaps to do with the SQL
configuration for your pop3/imap4 daemon, which may not be accessing the
database because you have not yet configured correctly the credentials to
access the database. I guess you get what I mean. The pop3/imap4 daemon also
needs a username and password to access the vexim DB.
