We experience frequent contact data loss - bits & pieces here and there - but
significant enough to worry, such as all addresses for 5,000 contacts gone.
Luckily, we back the .pst up each night, so we can always recover the data,
but it is getting ridiculous.

Are you syncing with a PDA? Is the pst stored on a network?

Do your users have Blackberries and are you using a Blackberry server? If
yes, it is a known issue for which RIM has the solution.
