The patch info says :
Qmail was designed for BSD-like filesystems. And it is unreliable under
Linux because it assumes that link() is a synchronous operation. This is
not the case with EXT2 and ReiserFS. So you have to apply this patch to avoid losing messages due
system crashes
Is this really true, about EXT2 being unreliable as well ?
