As Aaron asked, it would be useful to strace the process to see what exactly is waiting: mbox file or index files, dotlocking or fcntl locking. > Sometimes I can kill all the processes, remove the dot locks, and > recover. Something I need to reboot the nfs server to recover. Maybe you could just try disabling fcntl locking for index files and see how it works then: lock_method = dotlock Also if that doesn't help, try how mboxes work with only dotlocking: mbox_read_locks = dotlock mbox_write_locks = dotlock
