You can do that with shadow transports. Check the docs for details.
Are you sure that you want to do this, though. If you deploy the backup
server, your users will suddenly find that all the email they've ever
deleted will disappear. Also, their mailbox structures may be different (if
you use IMAP or Exchange). Mail clients may be confused as they try to
synch with the server.
What mailstore do you use? People here may have better suggestions for
backups, but it is a bit off topic for this list.
