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!
