i guess you are using systemd

/run is a tmpfs andany software package using subfoldfers there needs tmpfiles.d
http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/tmpfiles.d.html

[root@mail:~]$ cat /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/dbmail.conf
d /run/dbmail 0755 dbmail dbmail -

[root@mail:~]$ rpm -q --file /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/dbmail.conf
dbmail-3.1.9-4.fc19.20140107.rh.e5ad1e579562e22fc215b6186696eaba07213cb1.x86_64
