Hello list,

I have installed Proxmox on a couple servers to test its features, is
there anyone on the list who is using this software in a production
environment for HA?

Yes, but it depends on what you consider HA. There are varying degrees, and you need to weight the costs against what you can live with in terms of how long it takes to get back online given various scenarios. IOW, what are you trying to achieve with HA?

If so, how does it work?

PVE works very well in my experience. I've used it from versions 2.1 through present (3.1).

Also, is there anyone on
the list that locates their a mail store off of the QMT server, say, on
a NAS device?

I put the mail store on a virtual NAS device, in the form of a VM with NFS shares.

If so, can you explain how?

I use autofs with NFS, so the mounting happens automatically, and the QMT host won't fail to start if the the NFS share has a problem.

In the NFS server, I have this in /etc/exports:
/mnt/stor/udat/mail tacs-mail(rw,insecure,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,async)

In QMT's /etc/auto.master, I have:
/net  -hosts  auto,rw,suid,async,fstype=nfs,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,intr

The domains folder is replaced as such:
# ls -ld /home/vpopmail/domains
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 49 Jan 16 2011 /home/vpopmail/domains -> ../../../net/tacs-udat/mnt/stor/udat/mail/domains
#
a symlink to where autofs mounts the exported nfs share.

/net is where autofs mounts network NFS shares (according to auto.master)
tacs-udat is the host name of the NFS server
/mnt/stor/udat/mail is the exported NFS share
/domains is the typical vpopmail domains directory

That's the gist of it.
