Not strictly related to the original issue, but I just went through the
included abstractions, and someone more familiar with akonadi will
easily spot opportunities for additional restrictions. For example I
would be surprised if mysqld needs netlink or the net_bind_service
capability, which leak in (indirectly) through the netservice
abstraction. I would actually doubt that this profile should permit any
capability at all, citing the Ubuntu wiki: "... it is generally not a
bug in the profile if a non-default configuration is being used by the
application." And adjusting user and group permissions such that mysqld
as a different user can access (just the) emails is certainly a non-
default configuration, supporting which IMHO reduces the security for
the broad majority which just runs something default.

Just to share some additional thoughts.
