At first i have noticed that i dont  have mysql when i did 
--build-options, so i tried to deinstall and reinstall dovecot2 port and 
now i have this also:

hostname# dovecot --build-options
Build options: ioloop=kqueue notify=kqueue ipv6 openssl io_block_size=8192
Mail storages: shared mdbox sdbox maildir mbox cydir imapc pop3c raw
SQL drivers: mysql
Passdb: checkpassword pam passwd passwd-file sql
Userdb: checkpassword nss passwd prefetch passwd-file sql

But i still keep getting the same error

hostname# service dovecot start
doveconf: Error: userdb is missing driver
doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file 
/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: userdb is missing driver
doveconf: Error: userdb is missing driver
