I was under the impression that the MySQL API does not have a proper BLOB interface. Access to data in a BLOB is limited by the max_packet parameter and therefore a BLOB larger than that cannot be retrieved from the database. Also, there is no interface to load and save a BLOB partially (get bytes x to y from BLOB). If these assumptions are correct, a mailstore in a MySQL database would be severely limited, as there cannot be a mail larger than max_packet and a large mail cannot be retrieved incrementally from the database. Please correct me, if these assumtions on the MySQL BLOB interface are not true.
