You're doing something very similar to what I've just done, though I'm
using postfix. You will need to use drbd (www.drbd.org) for the server
mirroring along with drbdlinks
(http://www.tummy.com/Community/software/drbdlinks/) to sort out the
transfer of filesystem from one machine to another.

I advise you use an R1 configuration, as it's much simpler and you are
in a basic 2-node failover scenario, rather than clustered services. You
can see my ha.cf and haresources in an above post (though take it with a
pinch of salt as it's part of an ongoing query).

As an aside, I would recommend upgrading your MailScanner, as that is
rather an old version and there have been a number of important bugfixes
since then.

Regards

Stef
