Because if the spool is a ramdisk then a message received via SMTP becomes the responsibility of the receiving SMTP server for delivery. With no physical storage location if the receiving STMP were to lose power the spool/received messages would be lost and further delivery would not be attempted upon restart.

Subject: RE: [Declude.JunkMail] improved performance using ramdrive?
If the spool directory was on a RAM drive, though, it could speed things up quite a bit (the RFCs say this is not allowed, though), as the information constantly changes.
Why would the RFCs care where the spool is? Performance wise, that would be a great use if you had the funds.
