Ah, gutted. Neither are an option right now.
Thanks for your help anyway.

I've been following the wiki document at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication, but I've become stuck.
I'm running version 2.1.3 on NetBSD 5.2 (v2.2+ isn't available as a package yet, and compiling my own is well outside my wheelhouse).
I have a couple of questions:
The wiki page keeps referring to "vmail". Is this a just system user I need to create? Presumably on both Dovecot boxes?
If I don't use virtual users, do I need this?
No. If you're using system users, each user owns his/her own mail. Replication would have to be done as root (or of course by a special user with sudo or other privilege escalation.)
Scroll further down that page to the part about "dsync wrapper script for root SSH login (v2.2+)", but oops, you don't have 2.2. Sad. I guess you'll either have to upgrade or figure out another way to do this (probably out of Dovecot scope.)
