I think Solaris also makes a reliable NFS platform, and it even

File System, but an opensource version is at www.openafs.org from
IBM, who apparently bought out Transarc) or maybe Coda.

Hmm, I'm not sure I'd want to run Maildir on either of those, or at least Coda. When I looked at Coda, ISTR you could have conflicting updates in disconnected operation which required manual intervention to fix. Admittedly
this was a few years ago, maybe things have moved on since then.

I'm not sure about Coda & Maildir, but AFS has been used with Maildir for more than fifteen years with sites with tens of thousands of user accounts...
