As you've explained before GlusterFS can handle this, so all items in the DB is no longer a big thing for me.

Just what people report on the mailing list. I don't care if it user postgres, mysql, whatever, as long as it reliable and does an excellent job of filtering spam. For my setup I choose MySQL and MTA as postfix as I believe these to be the most commonly used and as it happens they are both comfortable for me aswell. I would have made the Postgres learning curve if that was the only DB available. I've only used Chain and OSB. OSB is definitely performing better then Chain. I've only ever used Graham+Burton. > If we are going to remove the file based backends... then what next? Are we > going to remove all the tokenizers and then just leave one? And then?
