I'm having trouble selecting "long" rows out of a database
of email messages using python. I'm working on an IMAP server
in python using Postgres as a backend datastore. All the
code can be seen with a little poking around at
http://zipcode.sourceforge.net but basically I'm just
executing a query and it is blowing up.
Is this due to the greater-then 8k fields that I'm using
to store messages?
pg.version == 3.1
select version() yields:
PostgreSQL 7.1 on sparc-sun-solaris2.8, compiled by GCC 2.95.3
##
SELECT * FROM messages WHERE folder_pkey ='12' ORDER BY pkey
##
Backend message type 0x44 arrived while idle
