corrupting spool drops is becoming a real problem (easily fixed by
removing top few lines of spool file that appear to be a partially
deleted msg).
I understand that there are possibly two patchsets for locking, the
ntua patch and one from Clifton Royston.
I would like to take a stab at these, so if anyone can point me at
some resources, I would apppreciate it.
What locking method is uw-mapd using (and do you mean uw-imapd?).
Qpopper uses flock() and dot-lock, depending on the operation. On
some platforms, Qpopper has to emulate flock(), which can cause
interoperability problems with uw-imapd.
Assuming you run ./configure prior to make, the config.h file
produced should indicate if Qpopper needs to emulate flock(). If you
'fgrep HAVE_FLOCK config.h' what does it show?
