Take a look at Cyrus Imapd with the Murder plugin.

This is working very well for me.

 Subject: FreeBSD cluseter ?
 
 
 Hello,
 I have the tastk to make a project of a server cluster for 
 20.000 mailboxes.
 In which way may I create a cluseter of imap servers using FreeBSD ?
 any suggestions or hints ?
 The is the problem of the imap mailboxes. How can I 
 syncronize them in real time on both machines ?
 I as thinking to cyrus imapd or dovecot as imap server, but 
 anyway 20.000 mailboxes are really huge...
 And with cyrus imapd is impossible to achieve a real fail 
 over system even using cyrus murder.
 Anyone knows which kind of solutions are used by yahoo for example ?
 thank you
 
 Rick

Have you looked at cyrus-imapd23?

Anyone knows which kind of solutions are used by yahoo for example ?
thank you
The replication features in cyrus-imapd23 is AFAIK originally developed 
by or for

fastmail.fm.
It is still considered beta software, but at least some versions of it 
has been

used in large setups for some time.

I am not an expert on this but you should be able to run multiple  
dovecot or courier-imap servers across multiple machines accessing a  
central filesystem using maildir format.  maildir is designed for  
multiple access etc.
