Good to know. Google Apps Premier also support many of Outlook's features, at a price competitive to Rackspace. Their Standard version is free, for up to 10 mailboxes (they may have bumped this to 100), but their Premier ($50/yr/mailbox) adds on additional space (10Gb -> 25 Gb) and sync engines for Outlook and Blackberry. Google's pricing plan is an all or nothing deal, while Rackspace offers "hybrid" solutions where a few can have Exchange while the rest have "regular" (I'd presume SMTP/POP/IMAP) mail. Good deal. A good and competitive marketplace is a good thing: vendors can compete on features and price.
