If you run a dbmail-3.2, the upgrade steps will be performed
automatically. None of them are incompatible, with the possible
exception of dbmail_subjectfield (a view that is only used for
base-subject threading which nobody uses)

The dbmail_messages.seq field is simply not used by 3.1 - it's for
CONDSTORE and QRESYNC, and improved IDLE behaviour.

The changes on the dbmail_users table is for a special feature
(README.security-password) and not used by 3.1

That is always good advise.
