If you're using a flat file db for the subscriptions, this should be very
possible.

Note that the format (for the subs database in flat file format) is:

mailbox\t\n

(the \t is there because generally the value part of the key/value pair
goes between the \t and the \n, however the subs database only has keys--
no values).
