Why bother putting any of that on nfs? I can somewhat understand putting postfix spool on nfs, but not a good idea
I don't see a need to put amavis tmp on nfs, it's temp, and shouldn't really hold anything useful anyways. I would never put mysql on nfs, just the speed of it would slow it down. Plus mysql is network, so you don't need multible computers to access the datafiles. And if your paranoid about backups, you can make backups, or just use a slave, or both. I use nfs for mysql dump backups, and users maildir. Other than that, postfix, amavisd, mysql is all on the local drive. Right now I'm running 1 mysql server, and 3 postfix/amavis servers.
