	In general, softupdates are very good for mail queues.  Indeed, 
this is the case for which softupdates is almost ideal.

	However, both qmail and exim make some assumptions about the 
underlying filesystems which are not valid when those filesystems are 
using softupdates.  Therefore, if you are going to use either exim or 
qmail on *BSD, you need to turn off softupdates on the respective 
mail queue partitions.
