Whenever I try to use mail-lock or mail-unlock the commands print the
usage information. E.g.
$ mail-lock
usage: mail-lock [--use-pid] [--retry retry-count]
This issue only appeared after upgrading to squeeze and it also exists
in unstable.
The issue seems to be that there is a check for
lockfile_add_dot_lock_to_name in case of mail commands. IMO this is
non-sense and should be logically opposite.
