You're confusing 'mailboxes' with user mail 'settings' and/or user management.
Dovecot does not currently support storing users mail in any sql database, although 2.0 is supposedly going to make it easier to implement this with a plugin for anyone wants to write the code.
What you are reading about re: dovecot+mysql is simply using MySQL as the backend for your user info. It can be as simple as username and password, or you can add quota management, and even more (custom user storage locations, etc) with extra_fields:

Dovecot is extremely flexible with respect to configuration management.
