Have I got my permissions COMPLETELY screwed up? I know this is more of an NFS question rather than vpopmail - but I figure that anyone who has a working NFS/vpopmail setup should know.

The big thing with NFS is make sure that the UID and GID are the _SAME_ on all machines.

On the NFS /etc/passwd & /etc/group has entry:
vpopmail:x:1000:1000::/home/vpopmail:/bin/bash
vchkpw:!:1000:

On the clients it's:
vpopmail:x:1007:1002::/home/vpopmail:/sbin/nologin
vchkpw:!:1002:

That could explain why after mounting the share on the client it gave the mount a user/group of alias:nofiles

I'll try making them use the same UID/GID
