I was following the tutorial the digital had. I am not a mysql expert so you could be right.

This is using md5 for the hashing where as I am using SHA

To expand on this, the MySQL encrypt() function calls the system's crypt() function, which can be made to use a number of different hashes. A salt starting with $1$ is md5, $6$ is SHA512.

INSERT INTO `servermail`.`virtual_users`
(`id`, `domain_id`, `password` , `email`)
VALUES
('1', '1', ENCRYPT('firstpassword', CONCAT('$6$',
SUBSTRING(SHA(RAND()), -16))), 'email1@example.com'),
I want to format this query correctly.

I think this isn't quite right, because the salt has to end with a $ according to the man page for crypt.  I think you want CONCAT('$6$', SUBSTRING(SHA(RAND()), -16),'$')) but I could be wrong.
