It might be useful to add an option in installer.cfg to allow the selection of SQLite as the DB. Or perhaps document how to correctly configure it so that neither postgres nor MySQL are installed.

Is there any pros & cons consideration, lets say performance for using SQLite on email platform?

SQLite claims to be at least as fast as MySQL and be less resource-hungry (https://sqlite.org/about.html). For a server with limited resources, such as the one I was considering for this project, I wanted to install SQLite

Adding sqlite support to the installer should ne be too complicated.

Hi,

I totally agree with what @jobidon said above.
I don't understand why the Modoboa presentation mentions SQLite:

A SQL database (…) or SQLite) is used as a central point of communication between all components.

I think SQLite is perfectly suited to small infrastructures.
