Is it only *this* user that is having problems or is it the only user
who happens to have their home on an NFS mount that is having problems?
As I'm sure you know, the deferral is just that, not a bounce. Is the
home mounted by automount? I find that to be a disaster for
mail delivery too.
If nothing else, it may simply be a flaky NFS connection for some
reason. It's a pity qmail doesn't attach the errno with the messages
associated with system call failures.
Mark.
