Count my vote in for this. This would be very useful as DBMail generic support will definitely raise DBMail's value. Currently analyzing the logs shows that the clients accessing the dbmail-pop3d through stunnel logged as local users (may be there is a workaround for this). Certainly there must be other valid reasons to have DBMail's generic SSL support.
DBMail is a fascinating product. I love it my job.
