Well imagine that we have 100 users in company, each of them has 200M
mailbox usually filled at least to 150M. That gives us 15G database (I
am not counting administrative overhead like indexes etc.).

WRT size of the db, what about keeping just the message headers and
indices in the db and the body as a file? This is akin to some content
management systems where the file info is in a db and the content
resides as a file. Don't know what the logistics and performance issues
are though. Clearly SQL mail storage is not for everyone.

Or the whole message, but attachments could be removed and be stored as files. Just as clients have the option to store headers, full messages, and full messages + attachments.
