Was it, perhaps, also introduced as an add-on to CMS 4?

If the only purpose for making the change is to allow Mailer to use an
SFS disk, I'd have to ask, "Why bother?"  Mailer needs to have its "A"
disk space reserved so that there is always room for the maximum allowed
size mail file, but that maximum size isn't likely to change, so what's
the point of using SFS?
