I've fixed this bug. But please take note: when the backend goes away, dbmail servers in preforking mode will now shut down completely.
In the future I may change this behaviour to allow for temporary failures to talk to the backend, as such a need arises. But it seems better for now to simply have the daemons die than have them trash the machine they're on. Fixed both in 2.0 and in trunk.
