Would that massive duplication be necessary?

Why not this -

MX (or MXs, with a load balancer)

All MXs forward to a second cluster of hosts, which then deliver to maildirs
hosted on a SAN.

A pop proxy solution like perdition would then proxy pop3 requests from the
appropriate box. Or the pop box would have access to the SAN as well ...
