Interesting, I guess I didn't understand the concept of
what dbmail-util was for.  I assumed you should run the
-a (all) feature.  So for the sake of an upcoming consolidation
of all this information into hopefully a wiki or at least
my own documentation...

I've changed my dbmail-util strategy to be:
  dbmail-util -dvy every 6 hours starting at 00:05 (6:05, 12:05, 18:05)
  dbmail-util -pcvy at 1:30am each day
  dbmail-util -tubvy every month (just in case)

Is this a good plan for a larger volume site?  One item that
would be nice (and it might already be) is if dbmail-util
returned with 0 for everything ok, and 1 for not.  More convient
for the cron process with Email.

David,

Like Jesse said, the header check is a run-once style option really. If any
message gets inserted without a correct is_header flag on the first
messageblk that would be a bug.
