Thanks Wojtek - I appreciate it. I do have 7.2 so I can use it but 
having already added md to the system, I wonder if there is any 
advantage of replacing it with tmpfs. If there is, what is the best way 
to change it? Would I just unmount /var/amavisd/tmp and then proceed 
with the tmpfs thing?

Thank you!
