You mean that documentation is a bit outdated nowadays

That's true 200 mailboxes is nothing but it will grow
rapidly and I was thinking if I already configure my
site with a MURDER configuration I will have less work
after adding extra backend server or frontend servers.
I would like to start with one frontend server (also
running the MUPDATE server) and one backend server.
And pretty soon I should be adding a second backend
server. Don't you think it's less work for the future
if I already start with a mini MURDER configration ? I
really would like to be able to scale rapidly when
needed. Also when we will have two backend servers
then if one crashes there is still the other where we
could quickly restore the mail dbs while reinstalling
a new backend server and also only half off the
mailboxes will be down for example, that's also
another great advantage... Well for us that
MURDER/Aggregation architecture looks very promising
that's also why we want to use it.
