We have a similar setup for users to read email;
in fstab file on the client we have
servername:/var/spool/mail /var/spool/mail nfs
in exports file on the server we have
/var/spool/mail *.domain(rw,squash_uids=0-99,squash_gids=0-49)
This will not export /var/spool/mail with root permissions.
Hope this helps.
