I use mysqldump --opt dbmail, but I guess it's a matter of taste.
However, remember to execute:
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;
SET SQL_LOG_OFF=1;
SET SQL_LOG_UPDATE=0;
before you start loading such a backup file. Esp if it's big.
So if dbmail.preload.mysql contains the previous statements,
mysql -e dbmail.preload.mysql dbmail < backup/dbmail.mysql
should be a clean recovery procedure.
