Yes, this works.

Yes, MTA (sendmail) is running on the Solaris host, and the directory
is exported properly.

On Solaris the MTA is running as the daemon user which has the same
UID/GID on both systems, and on the Debian box there is no MTA (at
least none listening on port 25). Well at least "something" seems to
work: if I remove the mail folder of the user and send him "fresh"
email, the file gets created ..... but is still empty.
