If he uses pop all his email is on his pc, pc goes bang, then he is only as good as his last back up, leased solution gives him service levels, clustering, etc etc etc, oh yeah, and anti virus as well, potentially archiving, smart phone access, rpc/https, list is almost endless

He asked me if he "should I lease exchange space($6/mo) or just use a POP/IMAP (free) solution?" I told him I would build him a box but he says he doesn't want to have to manage anything. What are the pros/cons to lease vs free? To me "PUSH" is worth $6/mo. Opinions?
