I asked on the Dovecot list about how Dovecot compares to DBMail and got

Has anyone compiled a comparison of Dovecot to DBMail? Why would I chose
one over the other?
I think their goals are quite different. Don't know if any such
comparisons would be all that useful.
Or I guess I can give you one difference: Dovecot tries very hard to be
secure. DBMail then seems to keep adding SQL injection security holes. I
said about this to them a few years ago and they fixed them, but now
that I looked at the code a few months ago they had added more of those.
