Re: MySQL-Limits

Hi Marc, thanks for your answer. People here told me, that it is possible and "allowed" to ask MySQL questions here. I preferre newsgroups instead of mailing-list, so if you know a good MySQL-newsgroup that is accessable via a newsserver, perhaps you could tell me and I can ask questions there.
