indexing ;-)  Before dbmail can really use transactions, it need to be
able to detect if a given table/database supports them.  I'm guessing
mysql has some method for this, but haven't checked.

Mostly the patch needs to be fit into dbmail-2.0.  It's a proof of
concept for benchmarking and discussion, since I don't have much time to
experiment with the unstable tree.  dbmail is pretty good, but there's
still lots of room for performance improvement.  Reading through the
archives, people know this already, it's just a matter of time as they
get through the feature list ;-)
