For PostgreSQL with clustering support, you must either patch the 7.x version
or upgrade to 8.x and the pgCluster patch, that will let you do multi-master
replication between the servers.

For that you need a pool-controller/loadbalancer with replication support or
without replication and a backend pool of PostgreSQL servers with
multi-master replication.

I have more or least 10.000 users on a 4 machine email cluster, running
GNU/Debian with qmail, courier-imap, dspam, squirrelmail and postgreSQL in
multi-master mode as a backend to dspam, and all of them run with a 6Mbs + 4
Mbs FR lines, more than 280.000 messages a day in average.
But all of that depends on the apps you run on the servers.
