[oclug] Redundant mail servers.

[Spencer Cheng]

Another solution is to use network block level file system redundancy 
to keep a backup mail server's disk/partition in sync with a primary 
mail server. Linux has support for it somewhere. [Saw it once forget 
what it is called]. Works with any mail protocol.

Spencer
