Speaking about a professional, high volume solution I would realize the high availability, mirrored mail access server with a product like Cyrus-Murder. Setting up an automatic copying, either with Sendmail macros or Procmail, to a second system would be more an experimental state solution I feel. Doing an rsyncing requires a mechanism which cares for mail file (mbox or Maildir) lockings, to be sure to not loose mails when switching over systems. In a high mail volume environment you can't simply switch off services for the time the sync process runs.
