I would contest the last two.
I had two bad experiences with ReiserFS in our Mail Server, reiserfsck is
too slow and lost data.
IMHO ReiserFS have the best performance for Maildir but its only safe on
production if you´re sure that the system I/O will never fail.
nullfs (mount -t nullfs /dev/null /var/spool/mail) is even faster than
ReiserFS, and is just slightly more likely to loose your data. :)
But it is way more predictable at WHEN it will lose data.
