I strongly suspect that you've hit a bug in ReiserFS -- are you running with
all of Han's latest patches? We've been running qmail on various Linux
systems for years, nd have never had a problem like this one on ext2. You may
want to get Hans' people in on this discussion; they may have a ReiserFS
debugging patch to help them track down the problem.
