        Hi,
mails are still stored in an MBOX format, the sqlite database is for
summaries, the index of some particular data pointing to the right place
in the MBOX file (or the other format, depends on the provider). The
summaries were there even before, but only in some binary format. The
change to sqlite was intended to make things quicker.
        Hope that helps,
