Try mounting a share individually with mount -t nfs ip.ad.dr.es:/share

Yes, that looks very similar to my experience. But I see there's only one poster, and nothing further since end of March. :(

Across Linux machines, SSHFS  is a viable alternative - that's the SSH
option in File | Connect to Server in Nautilus.

Don't you have to do that manually on every machine every time you start it? I could do with the shares mounting automatically (if only because the Thunderbird profile is on a network share).

As it looks like this may not get fixed in 12.04 any time soon, I think I'll go back to using Samba (which may no longer have the problems with unmounting at shutdown that chronically plagued it before, and caused me to move to NFS in the first place.)

Thanks for taking the trouble to search out the bug report, and for your suggestion.
