For those that are interested, there is a thread on the PostgreSQL list
regarding the recently posted 'optimization' in DBMail:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2002-11/msg00114.php
I must reiterate that asking PostgreSQL to work properly without running an
analyze is like asking a pilot to fly a plane with no radar and a blackened
windscreen: "Just do what you did last time".
This is especially true if the database data profile has changed substantially.
