We did this a few years ago and ended up writing the while thing ourselves=
. This included billing, subscriber management etc etc.

We integrates to salesforce.com for the internal front end and the user fa=
cing stuff we did ourselves.

It was a big project and took a team of six about six months. But we ended=
 up with a perfect solution that did exactly what we needed and it was pre=
tty good.

It handled within the order of users you mention, but=20we designed to 100=
k users.

We used radiator (highly recommended) with openldap back end. Multiple loa=
d balanced servers etc etc.

The worst thing we did was to build our own mail system. Not that it was a=
n issue, it never went wrong, but these days I'd just send people to gmail=
 or something.
