Mysql with innodb does support raw device but does not support
table space AFAIK
but postgresql does support table space.
They both use tablespace with a different meaning. In postgresql you
can define a tablespace
to a given directory, where it will store *all* data in that tablespace.
While in MySQL tablespace is a way to concatonate more harddisk room
to your database
i.e. spread over 2 discs if the first is full.
I don't have experience with Oracle and dbmail, I don't even now if
it is supported. I
would say go with open source and the money you save can buy you
more disks
(remember more spindle more joy) and maybe you want to donate to
this project
to get better support.
No oracle support as off version 2.0, however as paul said before, he
is willing to implement this in exchange for payment. So if you want
this you'd better contact him directly.
