We have a feeling that during updates of the YP passwd file
inconsistencies arise that lead to login names temporarily disappearing
from the database.  This causes mail to get lost and other nastyness.

Does this sound familiar? Is there a fix?  We run SunOs 3.5 and Sys4-3.2
and have a ~800 line passwd file.
