We have tried postgresql (not for dbmail), and I guess all I can say is
MySQL 'feels nicer' to me, and it's the devil I know vs. the devil I don't. 

We run Innodb and it performs realy well in general. I just have some config
setting wrong; or linux is not the best platform for high threads or
something.

Agreed. I was thinking the same thing when I was hacking the code to disable
it  :)
