Continuing my question, what I am thinking is:

    Create imap.conf files on each server:

      Server be1: partition-default /var/spool/imap1
      Server be2: partition-default /var/spool/imap2

   Create replication.conf files on each server:

      Server be1: partition-default /var/spool/imap2
      Server be2: partition-default /var/spool/imap1

replication.conf would be used for the syncserver process on each be server.

The idea is that the imap processes know of one set of partitions, and 
the replication process knows of the other.  Each mupdatepush process 
will only inform the Cyrus front-end master of its own master partition. 
  The IMAP processes will only place it's own partitions in the 
synchronization log.

Thoughts?

Mike
