I think it might be replaced with "mmap_disable=yes" (see the dovecot-example.conf). I guess the nfs.txt file is a little out of date.

How can I configure the dovecot for working with maildir's through NFS?

If I add option "index_mmap_invalidate = yes" (as in doc/nfs.t) then in log I have this message:

"Error: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot.conf line 296: Unknown setting: index_mmap_invalidate"

If I try to get the mail without option "index_mmap_invalidate" then I have in log this message:

"Error: POP3(butyrev.lk): mail_index_lock_fd() failed with file /var/mail/sam-butyrev.lk/dovecot.index.log: No locks available dovecot: Error: POP3(butyrev.lk): mail_index_wait_lock_fd() failed with file /var/mail/sam-butyrev.lk/dovecot.index.log: No locks available dovecot: Error: POP3(butyrev.lk): Couldn't open INBOX: Internal error occured. Refer to server log for more information."
