Yes. It seems to work quite nicely with my maildir stress tests, but
with mbox I'm still getting errors. I'll try to get those fixed.

With maildir there's still the problem of dovecot-uidlist file. I
haven't yet even tried to make it do something sensible when it can't be
written. I'm not sure if I'll bother. (In my tests I kept the control
files in a different partition.)
