We have CanIt-PRO customers doing those levels of traffic.  For
example, one customer does about a million messages/day on three
dual-Xeon PCs.  We have another customer doing about four million/day
on 8 dual-Xeon PCs, with a quad Xeon hosting the database server.  If
you thrown lots (lots!) of memory at the problem, nice fast disks, and
decent CPUs, you can scale things up quite well.
