Personally I feel that adding non-mail processing behaviour to James is a
bad thing. Far better to use the right tool for the job adding hooks to
James to put it in the correct state as required.

To halt the services using a database, put a database into backup mode, back
it up and then reverse these actions use a scheduler. On *nix you could use
cron, on most platforms you could use the far more capable Open Symphony
Quartz scheduler (http://www.opensymphony.com/quartz/).
