Aside from postgresql also give borland interbase 6 some thought.
It seemed to be stable enough has a nice feature set and includes a
number of frontend apps
Its also included with cobalt cubes..

The postGres comments are largely for the sake of levity, just to
illustrate the point. I know I can incorperate it and I've been
trying to work out the backup procedure as well.
I like mySQL and use it for many other project, just not this one.
And I have my own webmail for this app as well.
BUT if I pull out mySQL how many other third party apps will I break?
