Re: [Dbmail] DBmail and Django
My question is : can I add columns to DBmail tables without breaking something in DBmail ? Yes, I did so for my extensions to have domains and customers in it’s own tables. I also modified the aliases table without problems. mfg zmi ___ DBmail mailing list DBmail@dbmail.org http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail

I also modified the aliases table without problems. Dbmail tries very hard not assume anything about order of fields in a table. All columns are retrieved explicitely. So no 'select *' but always 'select field1,field2...'. So yes, adding columns is safe. Building a ORM mapping for dbmail is valid for all tables, *except* for message retrieval. That is, it'll work in 2.2 (for messageblks), but in 2.3 it is no longer a simple query. -- Paul Stevens paul at nfg.nl NET FACILITIES GROUP GPG/PGP: 1024D/11F8CD31 The Netherlandshttp://www.nfg.nl ___ DBmail mailing list DBmail@dbmail.org http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail
