Default single File per message problem

If the same message arrives for more than one user, only a single file is store but informatio
for the files is set in the database for all the recipients.
I think there is a problem here ( or I did not understand it right ).
If the same mesage arrives for user A and B and the file is only stored in the mailbox ( directory ) of user A, B may lost the message if for some reason he will need to reindex his mailsotre.

I did not see any information related recipients in the raw message file. If A and B need to reindex their mailstore ( database crash and index information is corupted ), there is enough information in the message file to set again an index for B ? or B wont be able to see that message anymore ?

Default Hard links.

Message file sharing is done by hard linking the message file into all the recipients' directories. So there won't be a problem should you need to "reindex".
