You then have to 'extract' or slice out the parts you need at each later stage when you need to utilize them. I personally do not know if that method is more CPU/RAM - call it 'machine' efficient than the multiple / complex SQL calls that put each 'chunk' into a bespoke 'bucket' directly. It well may be. But I DO know that for an 'SQL head' the method you (and I) use is far easier to understand and debug than counting-off byte positions or remembering it was the fifth item in a collection that holds what is now needed. So debug is easier for ME. And, as I said - the machine doesn't get a vote. CAVEAT: IF/AS/WHEN brute performance under heavy load becomes an issue, the machine that had no vote may get figuratively driven to its knees... ...from which position it is strategically placed to emulate biting great bleeding chunks out of the softer parts of your anatomy... One size does not fit all.. ;-) Bill -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
