The Maildir algorithm ensures unique filenames thus no locking is needed. It is safe to use Maildir over NFS. However, I don't understand why one would want to store the voicemails in a db anyway. A filesystem is a special case of a database designed to do just this. Store a pointer to the file in the db if you have to. -- Tracy Reed The attachment is a digital signature. http://copilotconsulting.com More info: http://copilotconsulting.com/sig
