No, none at all. An rdbms backend makes that sort of thing very simple/straightforward. Usually if you have very much mail coming in/out a day you schedule dbmail-util to be in off-hours so the disk activity doesn't affect many users, but on small sites that's probably not even a necessary consideration. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jesse Norell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "DBMail mailinglist" <[email protected]> > Sent: Friday, March 03, 2006 5:01 PM > Subject: Re: [Dbmail] dbmail-util > > > > > >> For mail where deleted_flag=1 It's one, two three gone.
