I think there is a misunderstanding here. Akonadi does not store your data in 
its database.  For example, if your mails were in a Maildir folder, it 
continues that way with akonadi. Akonadi merely is an access layer to the 
maildir folder. It's database AFAIK only contains some metadata.

Maybe an Akonadi dev can shine some light on what information is stored in its 
various databases (MySql & Nepomuk?).
