=head1 NAME
Mail::Box::Locker::POSIX - lock a folder using kernel file-locking
=head1 INHERITANCE
Mail::Box::Locker::POSIX
is a Mail::Box::Locker
is a Mail::Reporter
=head1 SYNOPSIS
See Mail::Box::Locker
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This locker object is created by the folder to get an exclusive lock on
the file which contains the data using the kernel's POSIX facilities. This
lock is created on a separate file-handle to the folder file, so not the
handle which is reading. Not all platforms support POSIX locking.

=head1 DIAGNOSTICS
=over 4
=item Warning: Folder $folder already lockf'd
=item Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not
implement this method where it should. This message means that some other
related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does
not. Probably you should investigate this and probably inform the author
of the package.
=item Error: Unable to check lock file $filename for $folder: $!
To check whether the filename is used to flock a folder, the file must be
opened. Apparently this fails, which does not mean that the folder is
locked neither that it is unlocked.
=item Error: Unable to open POSIX lock file $filename for $folder: $!
For POSIX style locking, a folder it must be opened, which does not
succeed for the specified reason.
=item Error: Will never get a POSIX lock at $filename for $folder: $!
Tried to lock the folder, but it did not succeed. The error code received
from the OS indicates that it will not succeed ever, so we do not need to
try again.
