Greetings

I have a table with the following table structure -

mysql> desc email_table;
+---------+---------------+-------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field   | Type          | Collation         | Null |
Key | Default | Extra |
+---------+---------------+-------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| email   | varchar(50)   | latin1_swedish_ci |      |
PRI |         |       |
| is_sent | enum('Y','N') | latin1_swedish_ci | YES  |
    | NULL    |       |
| id      | int(10)       | binary            |      |
PRI | 0       |       |
+---------+---------------+-------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+

I have a index on (id,email)....

I do a query like with Explain...

explain select 

concat(sum(conv(substring(md5(concat(email,is_sent,id)),1,8),16,10)),
sum(conv(substring(md5(concat(email,is_sent,id)),9,8),16,10)))
as b, 
 substring(concat(id,email),1,3) as c,
 count(*) as cnt from test.email_table 
 where substring(concat(id,email),1,2) = '33' 
 group by substring(concat(id,email),1,3)
 order by 1;

+----+-------------+-------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------
+-------+----------------------------------------------+
| id | select_type | table       | type |
possible_keys | key  | key_len | ref
| rows  | Extra                                       
|
+----+-------------+-------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------
+-------+----------------------------------------------+
|  1 | SIMPLE      | email_table | ALL  | NULL        
 | NULL |    NULL | NULL
| 33914 | Using where; Using temporary; Using filesort
|
+----+-------------+-------------+------+---------------+------+---------+------
+-------+----------------------------------------------+

The Explain says that it is not using any query and
scanning 33914 rows ( that is the number of rows in my
table ).

When I execute the query, it takes around 80ms,
returns 10 rows. I am running MySQL 4.1.0-alpha-max-nt
on WinXP.

Is there any way to optimise this query more.....or
the time taken by MySQL is GOOD?

Thanks in advance.
