My concern is with reading. // // Maildirs are totally safe for reading or writing via NFS (or anything else) // with or without locking, including environments with multiple servers doing // deliveries. You would have to use a POP server that supports maildirs // (included with qmail) or switch to a reader that supports them (ie: MUTT). What exactly is "maildirs" ? Is it a form of dot locking ? Does procmail supports it ? I've recently changed my local mail deliverer to procmail. And do not feel tempted to change smtpd/sendmail/procmail for qmail in the near future. Mutt is in my test queue, though.
