Well, that's true, however, updating times aren't *that* important for me. When I receive new mail, I let procmail sort it into appropriate mailfiles; each list has got its own mailfile plus some other personal files. Now, when new mail arrives, mutt notices that there's new mail in one of the files, and I'll change to that file. So I find myself *very* often opening mailfiles. And since the difference is that tremendously bad for Maildir on reiserfs on my machine, I can't stand to wait that extremely long. Futher, updating times in mbox with mutt aren't that bad, after all. This may be due to the fact, that I much more often delete messages which are at the end of the file, which seems to be faster than deleteing huge/a lot of messages from the middle of the mbox. > "no locking needed" goodies :-) I don't use NFS, so I don't need this goody.
