We are writing a dbmail administration interface with Ruby on Rails for the 
latest dbmail 2.2.9.  We are having an issue with the permission column in 
dbmail_mailboxes being set to a tinyint(1) in MySQL.  Ruby on Rails assumes 
that a tinyint(1) in MySQL is a boolean, however dbmail stores values greater 
than 1 in that column.  If we change the column to be tinyint(2) then Ruby on 
Rail has no issues.

Interestingly there is another column in the dbmail database that stores a 
similar value and is a tinyint(3).  This is the status column in the 
dbmail_messages table.

What I am wondering is if this change can be made upstream with you guys or if 
we are going to have to maintain the change on our end.

I would understand completely if you did not want to make this change, I just 
think it might be easier for anyone who might want to manipulate the dbmail 
database with Ruby on Rails.


Thank you very much for your help.
