Several people have responded with architecture suggestions. While these 
are welcome, I'm happy with the architecture options planned, having 
done many large voicemail implementations on products other than Asterisk.

What I had hoped to get from Asterisk-Users and Asterisk-Biz was not a 
technical discussion (though I don't mind getting this too), but reports 
of people who already have systems like this so I can put the customer's 
mind at ease that they're not the first people to use Asterisk voicemail 
with 3000 users. I should have made this more clear in my first email.
