We've considered using gluster for our mail storage a month ago. I've seen index corruption even if mail was delivered by lmtp sequentially some split-brains with no clear reason with more than 2000 mails in box we had to wait for 40sec to open mailbox through roundcube, so we've decided to go for dsync replication instead with common mysql database for user storage and imap/pop3/lmtp proxy.

Hello,
Has anyone used GlusterFS as storage file system for dovecot or any other email system..?
It says that it can be presented as a NFS, CIFS and as GlusterFS using the native client, technically using the client would allow the machine to read and write to it, therefore, I think that Dovecot would not care about it. Correct?
Anyone out there used this setup??
Thanks.
