I had to setup my own replication (I usually only test with manual dsync
invocation). Still, I cannot reproduce your problem: replication occurs
instantly. Our setups aren't very different, with the exception that I
installed two Dovecot instances on one server with replication
configured between them.

Do your logs show anything strange? What do your logs show when you
enable mail_debug=yes?

What do the doveadm commands show when the -D option is added?

Is your configuration completely equal at both servers (except of course
for the configured replication peer)?

Stephan.
