How can you actually tell if everything is replicating properly though?
We have around 5000 public folders, and it does seem like the Exchange
Admin tool has a bit of a mind of its own with regards to what it shows
for Public Folder Replication status?

Presumably when you remove a replica some sort of "final sync" takes
place?
