There is a bug in there somewhere. The problem is that the DBD::Pg people 
can't think of a way to fix it transparently. The current suggestion is to 
check if the driver is Pg, and use bind_param to specify { pg_type => 
DBD::Pg::PG_BYTEA } for those columns that you know are bytea. Which is 
obviously a problem.

This is a problem in rc2, at least, since any message containing a 
backslash will silently fail to be stored when sent through the mail gateway.
