We really would like to find someone who could do the Google move and give us 
that .35 pricing as well....

Thanks.

All I'm going to say about this is that Gmail made my email headaches go away.  
No more tracking down spam/antivirus issues, no more webmail issues, no more 
hardware issues with the servers (disks seemed to fail in an email server more 
often than a web server).  No more people getting their password hacked and 
thousands of emails being sent out.  No more IPs ending up in the SORBS/et. al 
databases.  I tracked email maintenance time and materials for 6 months, and it 
was well worth the $.35 per email account we spent to let Google do it.

It is so easy to tell someone to take their iPhone/Droid phone/et. al and 
select Google as their email provider and put in their login information.

Chuck

You can slice it any way you like...

all I can tell you is that ... when you have evaluate honestly  how much time 
is spent by yourself or someone vs  how much you have to pay for the service...

for example.
Paying someone $75/month to keep linux boxes uptodate  and secure is a very 
inexpensive proposition.
Paying someone $0.25 per mailbox for high quality spam / virus filtering 
services is a very inexpensive proposition..

paying $0.35 per mailbox which includes some ridiculous amount of storage and 
spam / anti virus is a heck of a deal...

Unless.... you need somethings else that is not there...
e.g. in our case, we use internal hosted machines that we have 'outsourced' 
security & updates on to a third party... and we pay a different third party 
for excellent Spam/Virus filtering...

our problem was very simple... we provide hosting packages along with email.... 
even though what Google and Tucows offer is a great deal.. but  we needed 
options which they don't offer.

Maybe next go around we may separate mail from hosting control panel...

Your Mileage May Vary.

Exactly, out-sourcing just means you just pay for it indirectly, plus their

It all costs some way. You pay for administration, hardware, etc, whether you 
outsource or host it yourself. The time savings for me would be well worth 
$0.35 per user even in the thousands...may not be for others.

To do the switch to Gmail I believe you must change all client SMTP
and POP3 server settings.  Yuk.  Also, depending how many email
accounts you have $0.35 can really add up especially when in the
thousands.
