One directory's all files are probably in one filesystem, so link()
within a single directory should be simple to implement I think? That's
all Dovecot needs.

Yes, sure. I think that it might be a little more complicated to find a generalised solution which will meet all requirements for the implementation of link().

   When I have a little spare time I may try grepping the Dovecot code.

there are link() and nfs_safe_link() calls.

Thanks for that info!
