The first attachment solves the above problem.
Unfortunately, I have discovered other problems:
1. maildrop appears (at least under Cygwin) to not quite respect
dotlocking and actually removes the lock file created by other
processes! The second attachment "solves" this problem.
2. maildrop appears to lock in a different order (i.e., dotlock then
fcntl()) than mutt (and procmail) (i.e., fcntl() then dotlock) so I'm
concerned about race conditions.
3. maildrop causes Cygwin to spin while another process has locked a mbox
via fcntl(F_SETLK). If interested, see the third attachment for details.
I'm interested in getting Cygwin maildrop to work because it is much
easier to build (and maintain) than procmail. Unfortunately, I'm getting
the impression that maildrop is used more for maildirs than for mboxes...
Thanks,
Jason
