Just a thought, you may want to look at MySQL Cluster.  I have a test 
lab setup w/ Cluster and so far I'm very pleased.

Mail storage is what has led me to Cluster, something like dbmail.org.

I currently use MySQL 4.1 w/ bi-directional replication in a 4 way setup 
for Radiator auth/accounting.  One or two times a month I run into a 
situation that breaks replication.  At first I had 1 database for both 
account information and accounting.  Because accounting is where I run 
into replication conflicts, I split the two.
