I&#x27;ve always felt adding things like noatime or relatime was a bit too <i>hacky</i>. I&#x27;m not sure the actual consequences of access times not being properly recorded are well understood, and that scares me a lot; just exactly which software is actually affected (and how?). I don&#x27;t use Mutt...but what about Samba? I have several folders shared in my LAN via Samba, with things like Access databases, Excel spreadsheets... could someone elaborate on this?
