I am using dovecot-2.1.3 on centos 5.7. Its running fine. I have two systems for mail server one is for backup. Currently I am running rsync daily. But I want to use dsync. I went through all the http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Dsync and http://blog.dovecot.org/2012/02/dovecot-clustering-with-dsync-based.htmlbut I couldn't understood how to automatize dsync. Can anybody give me any idea ho to do it ?

As far as I can tell, doing a for loop around 'doveadm user \*' is the only way. That will do a dsync of all the users. On the backup server you will need to decide what to do with the data. I've been rotating it on a daily basis to try and get several daily backups, then some weekly, and monthly.

I've been working on a backupninja[0] handler to do dsync backups, but its still rough.
