Better load-balancing and scalability

[AdamB]

In ME Enterprise I would love to be able to:

- Set drive\folder paths for EACH protocol queue
-- including different path for each inbound/outgoing folder/per protocol
-- This will allow us to spread the I/O load across different Disk controllers and HD's

- With Cluster, allow different folder shares for the ME Config and PO storage.
-- We have our PO storage on a SAN, yet the config folder needs this in the same folder for the cluster. Bummer.

- Allow Webmail to be installed on ANY IIS server, without needing ALL of ME being installed.
-- We want to use load balanced webserver farm, connecting to the SQL DB from each using a regkey or web.config file.
-- these would just be simple webserver machines and when load balanced we can setup stateful connections if session management is a pain for ME dev to have to worry about. (Unless you setup a common machine.config shared key to support stateless LB across IIS clusters)

You may wish to consider using Microsoft's "Junctions" (symbolic links) utility on the underlying file structure of operating system itself -- we've employed this methodology since 2006 with excellent results and no configuration or programming changes to the MailEnable Enterprise product were required.
