You have received a professional technical reply from Marck. I'm just
starting with SQL, so wouldn't remark myself.
However, with a mail base of 500GB (if that is not a typo) you will
have two options:
1.) contact RITlabs directly, so they write a proprietary option for
you to store the messages in whatever format you like
2.) write something which is perfectly to your needs.
If you work in Windows, option 1 should be your choice.
If you are in the *nix world, you could look around there but the
MUA's will most likely use .mbx format for reasons of efficiency that
Marck has outlined. So, in the *nix world, option 2 (reinventing the
wheel) might be your choice.

Just out of curiosity: what do you do? I mean, are you a mail service
provider, mail storage provider, or how does your message base to
500GB? Does this figure include attachments?
