Craig, Thanks for your help. I think I am using InnoDB and I use ext3 filesystem type. I am very woried about using DBMail for all my clients becouse my email system is growing every day... There is any other system that can auth users by [EMAIL PROTECTED] without using MySQL? It could use MailDir or MailBoxes...
