[Suggestion] Resync database
Alex, a Resync database feature would be fine on the Database > Customize Profile page.

Is there any way to do a resync manually??
I had to update my database paths and in LSQL I need to resync the database to get it to work; suppose I need to do so in Community as well.

What resync does, is match the .def file, to the database table, for speed and performance reasons.

If the actual table in Links/etc has the same fields as your community database, then you probably don't need to resync. If youve made changes to the tables in Community, you might have to.

When a program like community accesses a database in a remote/associated app, it will fetch that .def file, and as long as that matches the associated database, it should be ok.

If community uses the same routines/libraries as the other SQL apps, you should be able to issue a resync command.

I'm not quite up to speed on community, but I'm getting there. I'll look into this as well as the email headers. It's an option I used to put into my links plugins that used custom tables, and it should be built into our plugins for community as well.
