I (mostly) check my mail via a POP server (which uses a lock file -- piece
of cake), but occasionally check my mail in unix via elm (which as near as
I can tell uses flock()). Both read the system mailbox, and I have no way
of changing that.
Is there a way to get procmail to use both flock() and a named lockfile?
-or-
Am I being too paranoid about elm trying to write to the system mailbox at
the same time as procmail?
