Dropping MyISAM seems like the right thing to do here. DBMail 2.0 could
reasonably require MySQL 4.0 or 4.1 as its minimum, along with whatever recent
version of PostgreSQL supports needed features, too (yeah yeah, flame away
that PostgreSQL supports everything we need and always has).

MySQL will be moving toward..... lessee ...... where DB2 and Ingres
were, ...hmmm.. 15-20 years ago?
Maybe less.
DB2 hadn't even a CLI, (had to access it via COBOL), groked only
BCDIC/EBCDIC ....and Ingres (PostgreSQL) didn't grok SQL then or for
quite a long time thereafter...
Progress is that we have two open-source choices that work well.
BTW .... ever wonder how suitable the ZODB would be as a mailstore <G>
