AFAIK, you need to put the entire /var/qmail/queue on the same
drive. As mentioned, make sure that you're using the big-todo
patches. However, note that moving the queue to a ram-disc
will not prevent the todo queue from growing fast. It's fairly
easy to swamp it with incoming mail...
I'd try modifying qmail-smtpd so that it pauses when the todo gets
too large. Probably using some complicated scheme so that every
incoming connection doesn't walk the todo, but that's just my style.
