My hunch was correct. You go change those EFFECTIVE_USER/GROUP lines *now*.
Never run dbmail or any other daemon as root. You're not in kansas any more.
Simply change those lines to user and group dbmail. Run groupadd dbmail; useradd
dbmail; and restart. See if that helps in not bringing down your system.

I hope i can give more info:
I installed dbmail on a local system and on a dedicated server. Both machines have same config (suse 9.0 etc.)
The complete server gives NO RESPONDS after killall dbmail-pop3d !
No responds via ssh (it shuts down after i send the kill signal!). No Webserver responds (going down when killall dbmail-pop3d). But ping is okay ! But i must restart the server by hand.
The last in "warn" log is many lines of "serverchild.c,active:child_sig_handler: git signal [15]"
I dont have more info. Hope its enough (?)
Show us your dbmail.conf.
