Dbmail supports pop-before-smtp and imap-before-smtp. Smtp-auth is another matter. In postfix this is achieved with sasl, and there is no plan at all to support sasl in dbmail. Now if only dbmail would support PAM... think, think...

But perhaps you could try using pam-mysql. Yes that should work: smtp-auth uses sasl, saslauthd can use pam for authentication, pam-mysql provides pam authentication against a mysql database.

Reading saslauthd's manpage I see an even simpler solution: rimap. Let saslauthd authenticate using a remote imap connection.

hope this helps.
