#2962: fsync() is not called for messages written to maildir

Comment:

 You should call fflush before fsync.
 May I suggest something: add function safe_fclose_fsync into lib.c
 and call safe_fclose_fsync instead of safe_fclose in mh.c.

 Then it's also easy to call safe_fclose_fsync when for example saving
 attachments...

 {{{
 int safe_fclose_fsync (FILE **f)
 {
   int r = 0;

   if (*f) {
     if (fflush(*f) == EOF || ((fsync(fileno(*f)) == -1) && errno !=
 EINVAL)) {
       r = -1;
       fclose (*f);
     } else {
       r = fclose (*f);
     }
   }

   *f = NULL;
   return r;
 }
 }}}
