Hi Michael,

I would suggest you to read this documentation:
http://www.cyrusimap.org/mediawiki/index.php/Cyrus_Murder_Mail_Delivery

It is possible to change the delivery to use the local mailbox
database from the frontends when using Cyrus Aggregator. We have
already implemented it on our environment and it works very well. In
this scenario, the messages deliveries do not load the Mupdate master
and in a case of failure of the Master the messages will continue to
be delivered, so only the change operations from the Backends will be
unavailable.

Regards
Fabio Schmidt
