And yes - you really want expunge_mode: delayed if you're running replication, or at least NOT expunge_mode: immediate. > expunge_mode: default That should be OK actually. > server101_sync_host: 10.10.10.10 > server201_sync_host: 10.11.10.11 You are syncing to two different backends. That will be using more CPU for sure, just because the same mailbox gets opened three times for every change.
