If you wish to use APOP authentication in POP3 daemon, you will have
to enable DBM support in Mailutils. To do so, use one of the following
options:
--with-gdbm
Use GNU DBM
--with-db2
Use Berkeley DB
--with-ndbm
Use NDBM
--with-dbm
Use old DBM
Only one dbm option may be specified. Which one depends on the flavor
of DBM you are using. GDBM is most common for GNU system.
--with-log-facility=facility
Enable logging to the given syslog facility. Default is `mail'.

The following options enable DBM support in Mailutils. DBM support is
necessary if you wish to use APOP authentication in POP3 daemon or to
use DBM-based mail box quotas with mail.local.
--with-gdbm
Use GNU DBM
--with-berkeley-db[=ARG]
Use Berkeley DB. If ARG is not specified, configure will
attempt to autodetect the database version to use. Unless ARG
begins with a digit, it is taken as a library name, without
the `lib' prefix and library type suffix, so that specifying
--with-berkeley-db=db-3.1
instructs configure to use library libdb-3.1.so (or
libdb-3.1.a).
Otherwise, if ARG begins with a digit, it is understood as a
library version number to link to. In this case configure
assumes a Slackware-like installation layout. Thus, using
--with-berkeley-db=3.1
tells configure to use library libdb-3.1.so (or libdb-3.1.a)
and header file /usr/include/db31/db.h
--with-ndbm
