Because it restricts you to using dbmail stuff. Personally I'm very happy with using maildirs and importing only select mailheaders in a custom sql database so I can still have a useful adressbook and good search options. Also the claim on the dbmail homepage that a database is faster then parsing a filesystem is not true, it depends very much on what exactly you're parsing and in a lot of cases a filesystem will be a lot faster even.
