Already done, and we're in fact planning on doing some simulated load
testing to see if its flock() code actually does the right thing - as
you've already pointed out, dtmail needs a writable /var/mail for many
other things, like the tooltalk rendevous files.

If the flock() code doesn't work then I'm going to ship it with the
appropriate warning labels.

I've urged many times, more than that I cannot do since it's obviously
not my money being spent. :)
