The qmail FAQ specifically recommends against soft updates for the mail queue. http://cr.yp.to/qmail/faq/reliability.html#filesystems Is this incorrect? This section also warns against async filesystems on Linux for the qmail queue.

Just enable softupdates with tunefs, then mount the filesystem normally). -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
