Summary:                    systemd scripts build
Description: 
The dbmail.conf file allows (rightfully) us to set the pid directory but
the systemd makefile has the pid directory hard coded.

And when running the uninstall-local target of the systemd Makefile, it
makes an attempt to rm /usr/lib/systemd/system

You can change pidfile directory using

make install PID_DIR=/var/run/dbmail

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
since systemd files have their own configuration, they cannot be expected
to check dbmail.conf, but:

the systemd code should follow the autoconf style used in the rest of the
code, so defaults generated by configure, and explicit directory parameters
passed to configure must be respected:

so PID files go into the directory specified by

--localstatedir

which means, after taking a quick look - not tested - that references to
PID_DIR in systemd/Makefile.am should be replaced by localstatedir, just
like already done for sbindir

localstatedir will work until distributions support symlink /var/run ->
/run.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand. What do you mean? Why would a symlink be
required for localstatedir?
