Are you saying that both the servers are accepting and writing mails?
That can't really work unless they can also do global file locking.
Indeed, but only one of them is accepting imap connections. The other
one accepts imap only if the first one is down (virtual IPs)
That kind of a setup would work reliably with maildir only if the
other server's LDA didn't update any index/control files. But dbox's
good performance comes from being able to trust that everything is
always up-to-date in the index files, so that wouldn't really work.
Is there already some sort of replication in dovecot?
Not yet. Hopefully this year.
