i supplied Tom with the necessary DDL files for PostgreSQL some time
ago, i have it running against PostgreSQL w/o trouble.
the only changes in the perl code have to do with the database connect
string, otherwise it's identical to the MySQL version.
i think that for larger mailing lists, there's probably some performance
tuning that could be done. but that's properly a topic for the exilist
development lists.
