postfix with mysql support allows you to use mysql tables in addition to the usual tables such as hash. The way you store your mail has nothing to do with postfix. Adding mysql support to postfix will not make it possible for you to store your mail in a mysql database, but it will allow you to store the list of valid recipients, for examples, in mysql.
