Subject:   Mail servers & NFS locking?

I want to have a seperate machine as a sendmail/pop email server. 
I've heard that on some OS's this can scramble mailboxes if NFS locking 
doesn't work.

For FreeBSD, what is the preferred method to do this? Can I just NFS mount
the mail directory on the user machines? Does NFS locking work?

Thanks!

Joe
