Qmail vs Reiserfs

[Marcin Bohosiewicz]

http://www.jedi.claranet.fr/qmail-tuning.html

Qmail was designed for BSD-like filesystems. And it is unreliable under
Linux because it assumes that link() is a synchronous operation. This is not
the case with EXT2 and ReiserFS. So you have to apply this patch to avoid
losing messages due system crashes. You can run Qmail and ReiserFS
      without this patch, and never notice the bug, because you have to get
a crash at the right time to trigger it. But according to Murphy's law, if
your queue
      contains a highly important message, it will happen :)
