It's my understanding that the 'peering' option of Imail is used to
distribute the user accounts across multiple machines.  It does not actually
provide redundancy for each user account.

For example,
    users [EMAIL PROTECTED] are handled by machine1.company.com
    users [EMAIL PROTECTED] are handled by machine2.company.com

If machine1 fails, users A-M will *not* be able to check their mail until it
is available again.

In addition,  you must inform your users which machine they need to connect
to to retrieve mail.

A-M must use machine1.company.com, N-Z must use machine2.company.com,
