 SWAP is always bad and should only be a reserve

 so normally you should have as much memory as needed for the application
 (per-connections-buffersxmac_connetions, key_buffer_size, buffer_pool)
 and 20-40% reserve, additional i wuld recommend 1-2 GB SWAP to help the
 OS in stress-situations

 but never, independent for which service, you should see SWAp as additional
 memory because if it is heavily used/needed the performance will suck

DROP USER command is the only command to remove any user and its
association from all other tables.

Cheers

 ALWAYS
 start with select * from mysql.user where user='mail_admin' and host like
 '\%';
 and look what records are affected to make sure the were-statement works as
 expected and then use CURSOR UP and edit the last command to delete
 from

 not only doing this while unsure with escapes  protects you against logical
 mistakes like forget a and column=1 and get 1000 rows affected with no
 way back

  Note: I haven't tested it and since % is a wildcard you need to escape
 it.

  Thanks but I probably should have noted that I only want to delete the
  wildcard user. There are other users I would prefer to not delete.
 
  mysql select user,host from mysql.user where user='mail_admin';
  ++---+
  | user   | host  |
  ++---+
  | mail_admin | % |
  | mail_admin | 127.0.0.1 |
  | mail_admin | localhost |
  | mail_admin | localhost.localdomain |

  4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

So then no use of setting 3G sort buffer in my.cnf untill system will take
a rebot?
I was in the impression that 10M will be used and it will be scratched to
3G whenever required as same is set globally?

 The session value (10M in your case) will be used for queries issued in
 that session.
