Well, does anybody now, how the locking against the MTA is done?

How do multiple copies of the MTA lock against each other (e.g.,
multiple procmails) ? And how does finally an MUA lock against the MTA ?

Is there a convention (or a standard) for this locking?

Or is it MTA (e.g., sendmail) specific? (I guess no).

                Really curious
