You have to make sure all dbmail instances connect to the same master. Dbmail will create auto_increment keys on all tables, so when a write action occurs on a multi-master setup those fields will break the replication.


not true. a correct setup of circle replication will do what he needs. we have currently 3 database servers (mysql) configured as a circle replication and two lmtp dbmail instances are running on different server usin "their" own databaseserver. even auto_increment keys are not a problem since any change to the database is spreaded immidietly.... :D

So your telling me there will never be any lock contention between different masters? That is not the experience shared on the list earlier. But perhaps mysql's replication has seen improvements in this field. Only Real-World experiences like your own can tell, I guess.
