this with large maildirs.Timo, you (and others) may well consider this off-topic, but would
you mind telling us more about this ext3 bug? I have some very large ext3 filesystems (not maildirs) and am concerned.
So not a bug after all, just something I had never heard of before.
This makes my duplicate fixing code pretty difficult to do correctly.
I guess I'll go remove it completely then, it's not like anyone else
does it either. :) Then again, if there do exist duplicates, it
starts giving annoying error messages.
Of course duplicates shouldn't normally happen either, but they do
with maildir_copy_preserve_filenames=yes and stress testing.. I guess
I'll leave this fix post-v1.0.
