How can I prevent the Event ID error 9548(MSExchangeIS) from happening? I
normally use NoMas to fix em, but I want to prevent them from happening.
Would it be possible to create a script that runs like every morning and
perform exactly what NoMas does for every child domain I have?

Correct your deprovisioning process. Those issues are due to incorrectly
setting values on mailbox enabled users. Basically bad data is going in the
directory and then you are manually swinging back and correcting it.

Even outside of Exchange I think it depends on how fast the box actually is
and how hard you hit AD.
For a box in the closet to offer a get out of jail because everything else
fails... Ok. But I would be concerned that other machines you don't think of
normally as much as you think of Exchange
Let me restate this just a little.
The issue are due to Exchange Dev having an incomplete understanding of how
people do things in the enterprise and assuming that the only time a
disabled account could have a mailbox is because it is a resource mailbox so
instead of having an attribute for it

Yes, this is scriptable. Perl vs VBS? Either will work, so

How quickly are your source directories going to refill,
and how quickly are is your destination directory going to get cleaned up by the
different process?
From: [EMAIL
the source dirs take awhile to refill as they are being filled by xcopy. it copies about 4gig a batch.
The destination dir empties in about 10-15secs.
also the destinantion dir can only handle 1000 files at a time before being emptied.

enumerate files, have a for each loop with a counter, and move files until the
