While working on the same thing, I ran into the same issue you had with the
effective user and squash root on the NetApp. (same exact thing here).
Since the "real user" is uid 0 I was able to change the effective user in Perl
to whatever I wanted to, so in my case:
$> = getpwnam('mailnull') or warn "cannot set effective user!";
And now it works fine.
