Are you saying that multiple processes on the same

processes on the same folder on a single IMAP server?I don't know. That depends on how GPFS is implemented.
Pick a local filesystem, say ext3?
But with ext3 you can't have multiple servers accessing the same filesystem.
But of course there are no problems (well, some very rare random ones maybe) having multiple processes accessing the same mailbox on the
same server. Ever since I wrote my imaptest tool (a few years ago?) I've
been heavily stress testing multiple connections modifying the mailbox at
the same time.
Timo,
Can you tell me what platform/filesystem you use for testing? Oh and
can you hint at what "bad things" may happen when I get the error
"record points outside file"?
Thanks, Jonathan
