If it is the same database instance, this is trivial. Just reference
the db when you tell the query which table you want:
select * from db.table
Even if your connection to MySQL specifies a different db, the query
should be redirected to the proper one. Been a while since I've worked
with postgres so I cannot comment there, and I have not tried this in
exim specifically, but I bet it works.
