maybe small example will be more suitable :)
# vserver ftp exec mkdir /tmp/mnt
# vserver ftp exec ls -a /tmp/mnt
. ..
# mount --bind /var/mail/ /var/lib/vservers/ftp/tmp/mnt/
# ls /var/lib/vservers/ftp/tmp/mnt/
root
# vserver ftp exec ls -a /tmp/mnt
. ..
# vserver ftp enter
# cd /tmp/mnt/
# ls -a
. ..
# exit
# vserver ftp restart
[...]
# vserver ftp exec ls /tmp/mnt
root
# umount /var/lib/vservers/ftp/tmp/mnt/
# vserver ftp exec ls /tmp/mnt
root
# vserver ftp restart
[...]
# vserver ftp exec ls -a /tmp/mnt
. ..
