Oops, should have read properly. Do it as:

SELECT m.*
FROM table1 m,
table4 l,
table2 ms
LEFT JOIN
table3 s ON ...

So doing m.* works to select the columns returned does it? I'm sure last time I
tried it it didn't.

I wrote:

Just move table3 s to be last table specified before the left join phrase.
