You're right.  The front-end proxy would have to be a lot more
entangled with the conversation than something like perdition
currently is.

(I don't know that it would be that complicated ... you'd just have to
be watching for mailbox connection requests and transparently
logon/logoff the right server.  Might not be *too* bad, depending on
how much state you have to keep track of, but I doubt there is a proxy
that does this currently.)

This is probably the death blow to my evil plan.  I'll have to do the
usual thing of provisioning users in shared folder clusters.
Pragmatically, that will work out for my use case.

Thanks to all for comments.
