JFS doesn't update directory's mtime when files are added, removed or renamed in it. So Dovecot can't know when the maildir has changed without constantly reading its contents. With Linux's dnotify this could be kind of worked around, but I'm not really interested about doing that.
[wriede@serve ~]$ mount | grep jfs /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol01 on /home type jfs (rw) ... Comments? Willem Riede.
So, does Dovecot+Maildir work properly with it?
I'm pretty sure I tested myself at some point that JFS didn't update it. Maybe there are different versions of it?
If the problem isn't mtime, I can't really think of what it could be. Guess I should build jfs support to my kernel some day.
