dovecot - Feb 2015 - btrfs for mail_attachment_dir

Hello,

I don't find  any indication, that no btrfs for then filesystem for the 
path in "mail_attachment_dir" is to be used. but btrfs has a big
problem
with hard links in the same directory.
Nuisance is the only deal with a different file system?

According to [0] (and the links in there), this problem has been long solved.

I have posted this in the German-debian forum:

The result was that it still does not work. I have the kernel with 
version 3.13.33

Btrfs is still nowhere near production ready in 2015. If you want to run 
a server, which should be reliable, use ext4 oder maybe XFS instead. Or 
ZFS, if you need a COW.

If you are feeling adventurous, then use btrfs.
