    Why? Because it is wiser to pick your battles. :) In this case, it seems 
to me that you don't need to drop your schema, just modify it. But first of 
all, does using mailmessagestore work? If not, and if you don't want to add 
the full email address, then just add the domain name the user belongs to. 
That way you a.) can expend your energies on other battles and b.) not have 
to worry about conflicting data.
