It's worse than that though, Al.  PSS have seen performance issues with
loads of 9548s.  I've knocked up an article on it some time ago:

Any reason why you chose to disable the account (Active Directory
account) vs. deleting?  I would think that disassociating the mailbox
from the account would be a good answer in this case.  Will that work in
your environment?
 
The problem I have with ignoring the errors is that it leads to bad
habits such as ignoring other entries or losing things in the sea of
entries.  I'm not particululary fond of that concept as I've been bitten
long ago.

        Wondering how some are dealing with deleted user accounts and
their email accounts? I show a ton of warnings in the Application viewer
stating event ID 9548. 
        Disabled user /O=domain/ou=site/cn=recipients/cn=username does
not have a master account SID. Please use AD MMC to set an active
account as this user's master account. 
         
        We have a policy in place to leave the disabled for 30 days. Is
it best to just ignore the errors in the event log or can the accounts
themselves also be disabled to prevent the errors from appearing?
Looking at the Exchange Tasks on the account it only gives an option to
Move or Delete the mailbox. Hopefully this doesn't come across as too
dumb of a question for a response. 
         
        TIA
