Postfix delivering to NFS Maildir mailboxes... (Maildir on a local file system works fine of course, mbox on NFS is inherently unreliable and heavily dependent on working locking.)
Isn't the main point of Maildir (as opposed to mbox) that it *is* NFS safe and doesn't require working locking?
It is, and works (and has workarounds for non-idempotent NFS operations), but Wietse doesn't exactly bless NFS no matter what format you use.
