Hi Frederik,

What's the subdir limitation for XFS?  Isn't the same like for ext3?

You can easy work-around a problem with the limitation adding subdirs
for all your domains, e.g. example.org/001/peter, example.org/002/john,
example.org/003/jane, etc.

I agree that it seems a little more complicated, but if you store
a path to users Maildir in a data base, that it's no problem.

Have a nice day,

Pawel
