No. You have to specify two new parameters in dbmail.conf
sqlport=3306
sqlsocket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
If you specify host=localhost, sqlsocket IS required since
mysql_real_connect will connect to the unix socket instead of a tcp
socket. Otherwise, if host=someotherhost sqlport is required. Probably,
sqlport should default to 3306 for mysql builds, but I dont believe it
does so at present.
Checkout the mysql C-API docs for more authorative information.

Christian,
I've alread set host in my /etc/dbmail.conf:

Do you think that the idea is to use IP numbers ?

Hi.
Normally, I'm running the dbmail-1.2.1 and it works just fine for me.
However, I've decided to upgrade to the latest dbmail-2, as far as I
don't like to functionality in working with the IMAP dirs in
dbmail-1. I've heard that it has been pretty improved in dbmail-2.
However, after building everything and getting it up, no function of
it was able to connect to MySQL.
It shows the following:
dbmysql.c,db_connect: mysql_real_connect failed: Can't connect
to local MySQL server through socket '' (2)
I'm not sure what the real fix is, but you can connect over tcp by
setting the host to 127.0.0.1 as a workaround.
