Re: exfat not supported ?

2024-04-20 Thread Ted Hatfield via dovecot
I don’t think exfat is POSIX compliant.  

A quick search shows 

As exfat was created for windows, it is not a POSIX compliant filesystemand is 
missing a number of features that are expected on unix filesystems, such as 
symlinks, hard links, file locking, case sensitivity, and permissions. Any 
permissions you see on exfat are derived from mount options, not from the 
filesystem.Nov 7, 2021

I can't see any reason why not. As long as it behaves like
POSIX
filesystem.
