If you use your mail server to receive external Mails for a domain this
will not work with port 587.
The submission port (587) is only for sending mails from an mail client
and not receive mails from another mail server.

Email submission has nothing to do with DBMail. For submission to work
on port 587 uncommenting the relevant line in master.cf is enough.
You'll also have to reload the configuration, of course.

I found that some ISPs even block 587! If that is the case, just
duplicate the submission line in master.cf, and change the submission
word in some unused port. I typically use 2025 as an alternative for
submission (587):
2025 inet n - n - - smtpd
-o smtpd_tls_security_level=encrypt
-o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes
-o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject
-o milter_macro_daemon_name=ORIGINATING
submission inet n - n - - smtpd
-o smtpd_tls_security_level=encrypt
-o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes
-o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject
-o milter_macro_daemon_name=ORIGINATING
