I've used it.  Works good, though I had to grab a 2.0.x-current in order
to have it compile properly.  DBMail is a *good* program... but I'm not
sure I'd consider it a *GREAT* program.  Those guys have lots of bugs
and inconsistancy, and after muddling through the code I see many poor
program choices, lousy SQL decisions, and boastful attitude that isn't
really interested in fixing it.  That's my 2cents... even though I use
it. :-)  Someone needs to do what they're doing only better.
