Even without active/active, it's super useful for the simple
active/backup configuration which I use on my personal mail server
setup (one colo box, one home server) and a small company mail
server; as such I'm pretty sad to see it go. Still, it is up
to OX where they want to put their resources.

I guess losing repl probably doesn't affect larger ISP type setups
so much; it seems a bit more common to use shared storage (e.g.
maildirs on an nfs appliance or similar) in those cases if they're
actually running their own storage.

Unless I misunderstood the message (and I don't think I did), repl
was removed in pro too. (I don't expect that pro is available on my
usual choice of OS anyway..).
