Be careful; multiple access from different processes even on a single host can 
still run into locking issues against NFS filesystems, or data corruption if 
locking isn't available.  You're most at risk with local delivery to an 
mbox-style INBOX; delivery to maildir-style INBOX is much safer even on NFS 
without locking.
