What i want to know is: Anyone use or recommend EXT3 for Maildir?
My configuration: 3Ware 9650SE-8LPML, 8 drives SATA2 ST3500630AS 500GB on RAID 10.
Ext3 is pretty good if directory indexes are on.; See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ext3_Filesystem_Tips
If the ext3 fs was made with anaconda it has this feature anyway (CMIIW since centos 4.4 and 5.0).
You can check with:
# tune2fs -l /dev/mapper/VG00-LVvar|grep features Filesystem features: has_journal ext_attr resize_inode dir_index filetype needs_recovery sparse_super large_file
