how are you to use your keys if mail is being handeled over NFS, but keys are not available via NFS? I could see people using a local mail client, local keys and pointing to the mail spool via NFS. However, most mutt and pine users I know keep their keys on the mailserver so they don't put multiple copies of their private key on many boxes as they go from machine to machine.
