Yes you can proceed easily with those two settings and have a first bigger

If you're switching away from dbmail I wouldn't go trough the hassle of 
upgrading, since the upgrade need to reparse all the message to use the 
de-deduplication features.

Note: the ALTER TABLE will perform the OPTIMIZE TABLE, so you don't need to run 
the two commands, just go for the ALTER TABLE.

Thanks for the reply - my thoughts with the upgrade. The issue with OPTIMISE 
TABLE is that it needs the same amount of space to do the optimise, plus the 
tables are write locked whist this happens (is this correct?). Thats going to 
take a while on a 650GB table :) with live data on it.

Does Alter table write lock as well?

PS: also - what do i alter…
