I consider building a disaster tolerant mailsystem for in and outgoing mail.
 
I already have two ISPs and MX records that direct incoming mailtraffic properly.
 
The problem seems to be the IMAP.
 
Does any one have a suggestion for how to do this ?

Ps. Disaster tolerant in my view is when I can afford to loose one computerroom completely and the service from a users perspective is still available. Ds.

Is your question about how to initially create a redundant IMAP data store across your server rooms? Or how (after it's all created) to let users reach it automatically, regardless of which computer room is still alive after a failure?

I.e. Server implementation vs. DNS implementation? (...or both?)
