If your qmgr is choking on I/O, then throwing a DB at it wont help, in fact I can think of a number of ways this will make an I/O-challenged systems WORSE. I guess you could find some tool (or write one) that abstracts a MySQL database out to a file system, heck, I've seen all manner of weird things abstracted to file systems. At the end of the day, a file system is essentially an extremely specialised DB...for storing, accessing and manipulating files. So far the list has asked for specifics about the problem. You keep demanding a specific solution. Without knowing anything about your setup, what testing you've done, heck, even the version of Postfix you're on, how do you expect us to help you? Without being rude, have a read of http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html - specifically about half way down titled: "Be precise and informative about your problem". Good luck, James
