What precisely is being synchronised between all the Exchange servers
in the site?  Don't they each hold a distinct subset of the mailboxes?

And on the subject of Exchange limits, I was talking to one of our
server administrators, and he told me that there is a limit of 300
simultaneous MAPI connections per Exchange server.  This came up in
the context of some server-side virus scanning product that apparently
does terrible things to the information store.
