Thus, whoever is interested in a cheap man's fail-over mail cluster with geographically distributed servers and moderate load, I would encourage to consider and test replicator/dsync v2.2, now.

dsync was meant exactly for that kind of replication. For a relatively few number of users this should work well
Thank you Timo and Alexei for your encouraging info. This is exactly what I was thinking about. We have about 250 mailboxes (most of which are using POP3) with about 4000 outgoing / 8000 incoming mail messages per day. Normal traffic is under 5 mails (total in/out) per minute. IMHO, this sounds like a good case for dsync.
Now, where can I find directions on how to set up dsync/dovecot to work as explained, i.e. with real-time replication (for v2.2)?
Thanks again, Nick
Hmm, I feel I have to re-send, to correctly attribute the former text to Michael Grimm (rather than to Цветков Алексей). [Corrected above.]
In any case, please provide some link with info on how to set this up correctly for continuous real-time dsync.
I am using ldap-hosted accounts and Maildir. Dovecot runs on CentOS 6.3.
It seems to me that the mirroring examples at: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Dsync refer to a one-time operation, rather than to a continuous/real-time function.
Sincerely, Nick
