Just to clarify: you mean that if a message arrives for multiple local
recipients using the appendfile transport in maildir mode, to deliver one copy
and then hardlink the other recipients' copies to that one?

This is similar to the system used in CommuniGate Pro, and (I'm fairly sure)
several other commercial systems. It saves on actual disk usage but *only*
applies to the scenario above.

Given the myriad ways Exim can deliver messages, this might be quite a large
undertaking for a small gain.
