Interesting question. XML certainly maps well to/from IMS DB, so to the extent e-mail data storage is similar you might be onto something. I see that some people have been working with XML data stores to support e-mail archiving, at least.
There's some basic information on XML and IMS here: http://www-01.ibm.com/software/data/ims/imsjava/xmldb.html You might also want to ask on the IMS-L mailing list.. - - - - - Timothy Sipples IBM Consulting Enterprise Software Architect Based in Tokyo, Serving IBM Japan / Asia-Pacific E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
