Comment (by srepmub):

 So, unfortunately we are using a very old NFS server, the server is
 running Debian Lenny.

 Kernel version 2.6.26-1-amd64
 nfs-kernel-server package version:
 Architecture: i386
 Source: nfs-utils
 Version: 1:1.1.2-6lenny2

 At the Zarafa server side, we are using Debian Wheezy, so the versions
 are:
 root at zarafa1:~# nfsstat -m
 /mnt/backup from 192.168.1.199:/backup/zarafa
  Flags:
 rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=262144,wsize=262144,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=192.168.1.199,mountvers=3,mountport=44108,mountproto=udp,local_lock=none,addr=192.168.1.199

 root at zarafa1:~# uname -a

 root at zarafa1:~# nfsstat -v -m
 /mnt/backup from 192.168.1.199:/backup/zarafa
  Flags:
 rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=262144,wsize=262144,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=192.168.1.199,mountvers=3,mountport=44108,mountproto=udp,local_lock=none,addr=192.168.1.199

 As you mentoined it can be an nfs bug, so we are working on the new
 storage area to provide local filesystem for the indexes. :)

 so I guess the used xapian version is 1.2.12.
