I don't think that'll help. From what I understand, LMTP is required

Where did you come across that requirement? I do not recall that.
Hmmm I can't seem to find any reference to it. Maybe it was from the old
blog -
http://blog.dovecot.org/2012/02/dovecot-clustering-with-dsync-based.html
My understanding/assumption is that LDA delivers and updates indexes. I
assume using LMTP delivers, updates indexes and kicks off a quick sync.
Out of curiousity, why do you use SMTP from the MX to the destination
server instead of LMTP?
My reason is because qmail does not support that. I am not sure if I will
migrate to exim or postfix. Seems others have inquired about LMTP with
qmail,
might be something out there.
I use qmail as well - that's why I wrote/hacked the LMTP script :)
Basically, my last step (if no .qmail exists) is 'pipe to dovecot deliver'
- I need to change that to 'pipe to this LMTP script'
The script allows you to specify a hostname to deliver to, so that you can
dynamic deliver to the primary server for each user, assuming you're
already doing that with a director instance.
So the theory is. I've been hitting on pieces of this for years, and I
want to get all my data replicated before actually I start testing
again.. The LMTP script is 6 months old and I haven't done anything
beyond basic testing with it yet :/
If it weren't for all the procmail stuff I've put in over the years I'd
already be done. *sigh*
