But you miss the whole point of having an API in the first place.
It gives you the means to simplay and SAFELY manage/munge the data
without worrying about breaking business logic rules.
Of course it would be faster to write directly to the database.
But for that matter, why am I sending you an email in this manner?
Just send me the IP/Port and a username/password of your dbmail database
and I'll just run the INSERT statements from here. ;)

the app
in PHP, that would be very easy.

Of course not. Unless you assume the dbmail code is designed to be
inefficient.
Using libdbmail will give you full control, independent of the
storage
backend, authentication backend, schema changes, etc.
