Hello Folks,

I've been quite happy with XFS on this Suse 7.1 system.  I've got
2.4.7-xfs installed with egcs-2.91.66 and it is rock solid (100 days
uptime).

I'm about to switch my /var and / partitions from ReiserFS to XFS.  Before
I do so, has anyone else used the combination of Postfix and XFS?  I was
reading that there might be some locking issues.

The locking that Postfix uses was asumed to be correct and should work. There is no final verdict on this though. I believe Postfix was patched for ReiserFS a while a go which also affected the XFS behaviour.
