MMDF locks users' mailboxes while they are being modified. By default MMDF is configured to use UNIX System V fcntl() kernel locking protocols. You can choose to use XENIX system locking protocols, v7 protocols (Version 7 file-based locking), or all protocols. If MMDF fails to perform the specified locks, it releases any lock it has placed and tries again later.
See the section on the MLCKTYPE keyword in ``The mmdftailor file''.
