MultiMaster dsync (cluster1 cluster2 cluster3)
Will MultiMaster dsync work fine or will be big problems ?
I configured dovecot to dsync from serv1 to serv2 to serv3 and repeat to serv1 to serv2 to serv3 and repeat...
When email received to serv2, it will be synced to serv3, and serv3 will sync it to serv1, and serv1 will sync it to serv2 and will stop here because emails matched.
What problems can be with this kind of configuration ?
(except that if one of server(cluster) will be stopped, sync will be stopped too until cluster is online again)

It does not scale for that many users. It works fine for thousands of users, and is probably ok with some ten or twenty thousand users but anything above that is not recommended.
