When I have been confronted with this situation, I just do 2 separate ExMerge's. I'll do one exmerge that does everything except the Sent Items folder, rename the resulting pst, then do another exmerge that does only the Sent Items folder. (This is of course assuming that the entire mailbox minus the Sent Items folder gets you under 2 gig. If not, pick another folder to exlude).
Then do an exmerge import using both of the pst's. You'll have to do one import, rename the pst's, then do the other. Be sure to select the "merge contents" option.
