Did any body tried using rsync to replicate between backup and primary
qmail servers. Is it recommended for a Qmail hosting multiple domains
having more then 7000 users.
Try nfs or whatever backend storage interface you fancy for your storage
server and put /home/vpopmail/domains there.

Storing mail accounts on any backend storage does not have anything to do with
the need of backup... nfs or local, the mails must be backup at least every
day...
Heh, sorry for confusing you with my confused post. I doubt the OP was
yapping about backup, as in in case you lose data, at all. Mail accounts
!= mailboxes...at least I consider mail accounts to be whatever is
stuffed into the cdb|mysql|pgsql|whatever databases and contain
username, password, home directory and what not information and can be
be separately maintained from the mailstore.
We are doing backup trough rsync, and when the mail accounts take more than
10GB (meaning a lot of mails !), the backup take really a lot of time, we
needed to split the backup domain per domain...
Do you use snapshots or separate your mailstore per domain?
