All mail.com users cannot send you email. How many other's are
blocked as well? Oblivion, must be sweet.

Gmail is the best. Been using them for our business since 2012.
Virtually no issues at all aside from a handful of short outages over
the last 11 years.
It's hands off, costs very little, and I've NEVER needed to contact
them for support. We also use Google drive and their version of office
apps in the cloud. We don't store any files locally at all. All
business docs are at Google and they're safe there and they handle the
backups.
I don't see any advantage to hosting local email on your own server.
It's not worth your time. My time is worth $550/hr roughly when
looking at net profit so spending even one hour a year trying to
manage or fix my own email server would cost me more than what I pay
Google.
We're grandfathered in and think we get 10 free users for gsuite and I
pay to upgrade storage to 100gb on 2-3 users so we pay less than $60 a
year to Google for everything. Dirt cheap and great peace mind.
This is relating to our internal business use. For customer email, we
never offered it and never will. Just recommend a free Gmail account
and go live your best life not having to support email.

I prefer to have it in house for the 10-20 email addresses it
serves for employees and other business email addresses. It
is free that way and we don’t have to worry about anything
else. But for some reason the server hangs and needs to get
rebooted, usually about the same time each day.
Google got difficult, especially for email chains and other
things so we stopped using them some time ago. For example,
our scanner stopped being able to send emails due to something
gmail did.

How much is your time worth. The free internal server is
costing you this. We are still using rackspace for subscriber
mail and our office emails since its same domain and a pita to
set up split routing for the mail. The cost of our mail is
covered by the folks who have dropped service but wanted to
keep their email, we actually make a tidy profit to cover any
administrative stuff.
for my business I use google. 6 bucks a month per user. The
way I look at it is if im not making 6 bucks per guy a month I
have bigger problems than my email. Im a nerd, 20 years ago
dicking around with email servers would have been a blast. but
now its like maintaining a battery powered inverter just so i
can still use my corded drill. I can, it will work, its not
that complicated, but its nonetheless a dumb waste of time.
dealing with hosting email servers is a total waste of any
resources unless your monetizing it. too large an attack vector

Surgemail you could run 1000 customers on a raspberry pi!
Not free though. Extremely granular configuration options.

Not free. And they went to per user licensing so it’s
not cost effective for hosting anymore, but it’s
reasonable for internal email.
