Re: create nested maildirs as needed before creating a lock file?

2010-12-20 13:02:51
Hello Harald Dunkel,

Am 2010-12-20 18:55:08, hacktest Du folgendes herunter:
I didn't know that lockfiles are obsolete for Maildirs.
But AFAIK their are not forbidden, either. Creating the
Maildirs early would improve stability.

"improve stability"?  What do you mean?

Nested subdirectories (e.g. vger.kernel.org/a/b/c/linux-kernel
as in the example) are not created at all. I would guess this
could be easy to extend?

This works only, if you virtualizer yourenvironment.

Speak:  You setup fiter rules and instead og using

            :0
            * 1st rule
            * 2nd rule
            path/to/folder/

        you can do:

            :0
            * 1st rule
            * 2nd rule
            { DESTINATION="path/to/folder1/" }

            :0E
            * 3st rule
            * 4nd rule
            { DESTINATION="path/to/folder2/" }

            :0
            * ? test -n "${DESTINATION}"
            {
              DUMMY_EXEC=`mkdir -p ${BASEDIR}${DESTINATION} ; chown ${USER}: 
${BASEDIR}${DESTINATION}`
              :0
              ${BASEDIR}${DESTINATION}
            }

        Do not forget the "E" at the beginning of the Rules

Many thanx to all for your helpful comments.
Harri
