How does one email a database? With rare exceptions most mail servers have attachment limits of 16MB to 32MB. Just the schema alone could use up a chunk of the attachment limits. Is the title just oddly worded perhaps? Maybe they meant specific query results?

[Edit] Based on replies specific query results of two people names and dollar amounts into a spreadsheet. Poorly worded title on El Reg's part. Still a security privacy and compliance incident.
