yes  that's why  if you need to access your pop3/imap  for
the dbmail
users and  your current email system  you need to use  
different IP
addresses or   different ports.

It all depends on your MTA. Sendmail is able to decide how
to deliver mail
on a per-domain basis, so you should be OK.

Not quite, DBMail does not pick up mail from a mail queue.
The mail must
be actively handed off to DBMail. This page on the wiki
describes the two
ways to have Sendmail hand off incoming messages:

http://www.dbmail.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=sendmail_how
to

You will need a section in your mailertable like this:

foo.com   dbmail-lmtp:[127.0.0.1]
bar.com   dbmail

(Depending on whether you want to use dbmail-smtp or
dbmail-lmtpd.)

I think you can also use something like perdition to sort
this out.  Eg.
have perdition listen on port 143, your old pop3 server on
port 243 and
dbmail-pop3d on port 343, and perdition can be configured to
forward the
right login domains to the right pop3 server.  I think....
but I've
never actually used perdition.
