Created attachment 440476 [details, diff] The patch Attached patch to add support for systemd units scripts in dbmail installation. I don't know if I should add any other dependency for systemd use flag. Tested on my system and seems to work. I think the same modifications could be made on dbmail-3.2.2.ebuild

I think there is a bit more work to do: - DBMail's dbmail.tmpfiles is for nobody/nobody but Gentoo uses dbmail/dbmail - For PostgreSQL DBMail units have postgresql.service but Gentoo only has postgresql-${PN}.service See bug #575930
Also some discussion about not using Type=forking here: https://github.com/pjstevns/dbmail/issues/35
Hopefully --enable-systemd should be optional in future to build with sd_notify: https://github.com/pjstevns/dbmail/commit/c6773f6b5ff6d87513c3759565df1700128c7e42
Almost two years has passed from this report and dbmail ebuild still lacks systemd support.
