"I just sent an email to my girlfriend with dinner reservations for
tonight, but now I want to break up with her, can you delete the email
that I sent her?"
"3 years ago I bought a widget, and now I want to buy it again, but I
can't find it in my inbox, can you find it for me?"
"I just deleted all my email, but now I want it back. Get it back now!"
None of these are configuration problems, but will all take support
time, even to tell them "No, go away"

It really isn't that complicated.

We use Zimbra (and I love it!), but gave up on providing emails to
customers years ago. We have a few (maybe 10) remaining aside from
our in-house emails. These 10 customers are not really profitable due
to the amount of time that we spend dealing with email issues every
year. I would never even consider going back to providing email, and
we are considering cancelling these ten.

We host quite a few mailboxes, can’t tell you how many, it’s a number
of servers in redundant configuration, we can have two servers
physically go down and nothing stops working. We also backup
everything on a daily basis, pricing starts at 2 bucks a mailbox but
goes down from there as the scale increases. We offer secure
webmail, secure POP/IMAP as well as SPF and DMARK if you are so
inclined to do so. Remote administration and simple migration. All
of our pricing is here

case someone wanted to know or wished us to host it. JJust a FYI.

I tried the same thing. I thought nobody would pay that much. I found
they would happily do it. I kept raising it. They finally started
fleeing when i required $20 a month paid annually.

We went to rackspace, never turned back, we are ona na
inexpensivish rate and we dont pimp the isp email. Though maybe we
should, we set it at 5 bucks a box per month with required annual
payment if you want to keep your email after leaving our service.
Figured that would get them to go away, but a suprising number
keep it. Its pure cash, like people who still have dialup
customers that churn cash with zero support each month.

We have lots of ISPs that outsource email hosting to us, but
we have a grandfathered deal and use BlueTie to provide the
service. We used to run our own servers and found that we
could provide better service at a lower cost (and wayyyy less
headaches).
