This might be the wrong list for this question, but it might

I have two email servers which I would like to keep in sync
all the time. The messages should be available on both at the
same time. Initially I though of using rsync by having it syncing
from A to B, and 2 minutes later syncing from B to A. This seems
to fail because messages start appearing as duplicates. Syncing
one way only avoids the duplicates, but fails to make sure that
both servers contain the set of messages.
Anyone as knowledge if maildrop can be used to perform this
function correctly? Is there any other option?
Maildrop cant help with this, and there are no quotas possible
if you to add or delete anything in the maildirs.
Package: drsync
[SNIP]
Unison does about the same, but is very picky about the versions
installed on each end.
Just dont expect this setup to uncrease the availability in
case of a crash - if the files on either end get corrupted
or vanishing this will be also propagated to the other side.
Indeed. However, the ideal situation would be to set up a file server
in the backend and share it to the two mail servers. No problems with
concurrency there. That's the beauty with maildirs, no problems with
locking when multiple servers are accessing the same file store.
