Well, you certainly won't get 500 K users in NT registry! more like 15 K,
but I suppose Win2K will improve that. But then you probably don't want to
bet your company on Win2K until after SP1 or so.
SQL7 or equivalent ODBC database would be the only way to handle that many
users. One SQL backend serving several Imail server front-ends. SQL will
also allow you to run hi-volume user accounting and radius applications on
the same database.
You will probably have to spread that many users across several NT
machines, using Imail peering, but I recommend you contact sales or
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to obtain their official, bet-your-company answer.
