Yes, sylpheed does not need PostgreSQL. sylph-searcher is an
independent application and actually is consisted of two programs:
"syldbimport" and "sylph-searcher". syldbimport reads given mail files
and stores them into PostgreSQL database, indexing with
tsearch2. sylph-searcher does full text searching the database and
shows the result.

Please let me know if you have further questions.
