You _can_ export ~mailman over NFS. The problem was that with

Yes, but since the mailman machine lives outside the firewall, I'd *really* rather not run NFS, even if it is filtered at the router.

Further, that means you've introduced a single dependency into your mail server setup, which rather defeats the purpose of having redundant mail receivers.

I think the NFS approach is the simplest by far :-)
