Hi,

My main idea of asking this was to have an off location backup of the
messages. Idea is to setup a mail server in two countries and
replicate the messages in real time to the peer.

I found few directions like using OpenAFS, Coda File System,
Intermezzo. But is it practically viable to use these with Qmail.


Regards,
Prashanth
