I would suggest either getting hold of pybsddb and using that instead of
dumbdbm, or using pickles.  Dumbdbm is completely inferior to any
alternative, including pickles.

To swap to pickles, use the -D switch in pop3proxy, or in your config
file, set the [Storage]persistent_use_database option to False.  To use
pybsddb, just download and install it (http://pybsddb.sf.net).
