I would strongly suggest you stick with dovecot v2.3 if you go this
route, since v2.4 (release late last year) is not supporting
replication any more.  At least not in the Community Edition.  I
suspect you can pay them for proper clustering solutions.

It might be better to just run a single dovecot instance on one of the
pair, and just have them both deliver to the same instance.  If you
set things up properly, a failure to deliver to dovecot would just end
up holding the email in the postfix queue.  But I'm no expert here and
I don't bother with this in my personal domain.
