I'm sorry for the ambiguous post. I meant support for **sql** databases like
MySql or Postgresql. I feel this support is especially important for
implementations with many users where uptime is critical. For example, to
achieve maximum uptime, you need to have more than one mail/tmda server. If not
for load, then for redundancy. You could mount the data dirs on a shared nfs
server, but, in my experience, this will not perform as well under load as a
shared database server. There are many file locking issues with the various nfs
implementations that are much harder to debug that a simple sql database
solution. So, what about sql database support? Anything already started? Any
thoughts on the effort involved? Thanks for the help.

Which threads exactly?  They should have conveyed that support is
already implemented.

You can use the DBM or CDB format with any of your address-only TMDA
lists.  See

for more details.
