Hi. 

I think Mauro meant if it is possible to have the Database credentials
themselves encrypted in dbmail.conf. - To answer that: I don't think
that is possible, but if you configure permissions properly (0600 or
maybe 0660 then noone but the dbmail user and root should have access to
it) - or depending on which Database you use you could look into using
unix sockets instead of tcp/ip
