With the exception of the users message store, which is not exim's job
anyway, you can pretty much chuck all the config into a database
already. Black, white, greylist information, user lists, domain
routing, spam settings, virus settings can all easily be pulled from a
db rather than flat files. this is how the abmx backend works, for example.

What's radical, or even new, about your idea?

(Oh, and we use postgres of course, not ToySQL :)
