In the past I ran into locking problems with mail being done via NFS.
(Under both Solaris and BSD flavors.) I switched first to using
fetchmail with a POP server, and now go with a dovecot-based IMAP server
on two machines, the first for normal mail on the zen.org server and
then a second on my machine at home accessible by vpn/ssh/etc. It's
made life-on-the-laptop much easier...no more worries about things being
out of sync, etc. Same goes for roundcube and horde/imp access to it.
