Hi,
I'd like to point out to the list a problem with James and MySQL 4.1. The character set support was
revamped from MySQL 4.0 to MySQL 4.1, and as a result on some systems (in my case, Gentoo) UTF-8 is
now the default character set on install.
This is a problem when creating the spool, inbox and deadletter tables. The primary key for these
tables is (message_name, repository_name). On my system MySQL allows for 3 bytes per UTF-8
character, and has a maximum key length of 1000 bytes. Since message_name is 200 chars and
repository_name is 255 chars by default, the key length exceeds 1000 bytes and the table cannot be
created.
The key length issue in MySQL is better described here:

I managed to solve the problem by reducing the length of repository_name to 128
chars.
Ciao,
Craig
