http://dovecot.org/tools/nfstest.c I've done several updates for this. Updated results for Linux 2.6:
Different result this time:

Hmm. I updated the nfstest.c to now just retry if this happens. Does it help?
This is on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5 and a NetApp NFS server. I'm wondering if it is the same issue with the NFS client cache that I had to workaround in the past with dotlocking (http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-May/022883.html).
If it didn't help, then I suppose chown() is needed..
