Why move the email from one database (Imail) to another. Imail already
stores the email in a flat database format complete with index (.uid
files). Moving from one db to another is twice as much work. Why not just
use the what Imail has already created? Your users will be happier from a
speed standpoint, and your servers will happier from a resource standpoint.
