Bug Description

mailutils reintrodued Debian Bug#391031, postgresql support is missing again

mailutils supports Postgresql, ODBC and Mysql, but again only depends on mysql (libmysqlclient20 (>= 5.7.11))

It should be compiled against and suggests/recommend all three DB interfaces.
Hard dependencys needlessly enforces the installation of database systems that are most likely not used, pollutes installations and increases the attack surface.
