As long as a 'database' like MySQL is supported, they will use it and they'll never get the idea that another server may be better. But why should a user who has experience with MySQL and SQL in general should fear to install another database server? My point is that dbmail is unusable like it is, I have a really fast P4 server and I'm running dbmail with postgres, that works ok, though retrieving mail via imap is somewhat slow, and I have also an old P3 with only 700MHz where it is not possible to use dbmail / postgres / imapd + client at the same time because of performance issues.
