MySQL db with replication to a backup MySQL db for user information
(username and passwords. For replication - you need to write scripts.

A storage device (Maxtor, or Netapp if you can afford one) or maybe just
a linux fileserver mounted over NFS to store mail in hashed maildirs.

Configuration - keep your exim.conf current using rsync between the two
servers.
