Just put the email storage on the drbd mounted drive and you should
be ok.
drbd is asynchronous replication, isn't it? so if the active
'master' fails just as its written and acknowledged an incoming
message, that message could be lost if the replication hasn't
completed by the time of failure ?

Well, that's one of the problems I foresee, but also the fact that each
email has a unique message ID, so I don't know if the backup server will
pickup the changed messages ID's or not? I have been thinking of running
a MySQL backed mail server, but have a feeling it will have a heavy
impact on performance
