Then switch to using PostgreSQL as the database backend.
It's secure by default (e.g. only allows localhost connections) and
has better concurrency than MySQL. It's also Tom Lane's territory
and I like it better too. :-)
PostgreSQL requires manual intervention at each upgrade (dump BEFORE you
upgrade, restore afterwards) and is not automatically integrated into
Akonadi the way MySQL is (you have to set up a server manually and configure
Akonadi for it). And Akonadi automatically configures its MySQL instances to
only allow local connections from the specific user. (It sets it up to only
listen on a Unix socket with permissions only for the user owning the
instance.)
