I'm using DB_File, and so far I haven't seen any problem with it. Other apps on the 
same machine are using much bigger DB_File databases without problems as well. unning 
on FreeBSD 4.7, perl 5.8.0, DB_File 1.804 and whatever version of BerkelyDB that came 
with FreeBSD 4.7.

The reason? Well... It's easy to use a database one can tie in perl, and DB_File 
worked in other apps while the other installed tieable DBs had loads of problems once 
they grew over a certain size. DB_File still works fine, so I haven't seen any reason 
to change that.

Note that ours is not a huge and heavily loaded mail server.
