It depends on whether you use InnoDB tables or not and your isolation level.
If you don't use InnoDB tables, there is a strong possibility of an
inconsistent database state occuring.
If you do use InnoDB tables, you will need to set your isolation level
to READ_REPEATABLE to get a consistent snapshot.

Thanks Chris for your reply
When i created my dbmail-mysql-database i wrote to all my
create table statement type=innodb if that what you mean by
using innodb statement.
Where is that READ_REPEATABLE statement goes.
Can you give the complet mysqldump command you use.
Thanks again
Jacques
I use the same mysqldump command you use. The READ_REPEATABLE statement
belongs in your MySQL configuration file. You need to insert the
following line:
transaction-isolation = REPEATABLE-READ
Hope this helps!
