The advice Jake has already provided is great. If you truly are going to build a setup like this the biggest part will be the shared storage solution and a clustered environment on the front-end. Making sure you have fairly aggressive spam filtering as well is big, too. I for instance, have a system dedicated to only running the Spamassassin daemon process with quite powerful hardware. In addition spamdyke or similar will help with load.
The biggest part if you want reliable service, though, will be the LB solution.

Hi, I have an inquiry to handle 10,000 email addresses. I'm thinking 500 MB to 1,000 mb per email address. Can QmailToaster handle 10,000 email addresses? I am also thinking of the hardware specifications. If at 500 MB per email address, easily I will need 5,000 GB of hard drive space. What kind of server will I need? The traffic generated? Will 1 qmailtoaster on 1 super server do? Will 64bit be needed? Anyone who is managing such a monster right now share his story?
