*shrug*. If somebody does it without breaking rfc822db, please go
ahead.

well, if people think rewriting it to use tsearch and friend -- please
go ahead. If you are looking for other stuff to research -- partition
seems to be hot ATM. :) Look at the TODO list and start hacking.
If you don't have a CVS account, post the patches to the list and
somebody will apply them. If they are good, we'll get you a CVS
account proper (or you'll have access anyhow when you get to be a DD).
