Ok... I did point out that SpamCop / CESMail.net (corporate email services)
would do it reasonably cheaply for like $30/year/mailbox. (Just looked it
up.) See http://www.cesmail.net/smallbiz.php

 

You get spam/virus filtering built-in.

Tbh it's not really worth the hassle of Google Apps or some third party
host, though I did think about it.  We have various boxes in our DMZ so it's
not much of a bother to run "some" POP3/SMTP server, it's just a question of
which one.

 

If a paid Google Apps account for a couple of users would let me piggy back
40-50 domains at no additional cost for basic mail forwarding then it may be
worth looking into, but my understanding is that unless you have multiple
accounts it can't deal with domain1.com and domain2.com being registered
under one account, but i...@domain1 going to one person and i...@domain2
going to another person.

How about HotPop.com? Or Google? Google will host your domain emails for
you, I believe. Also, SpamCop.Net (webmail.spamcop.net) will host your email
for about $25/year/mailbox, I think. including spam / virus filtering and
spam reporting, if you like.

Subject: Cheap/Free POP3/SMTP Server?

 

We have a few dozen domains that are non-critical that I don't want to host
on our internal Exchange system (mostly political some technical reasons
i.e. I don't want some of the users anywhere near my LAN).

 

Most of them only have the need for abuse@ and postmaster@ to be configured,
but a few of the domains have some aliases setup and a couple of them have
some POP3 mailboxes.

 

I've tried hmailserver and mailenable on one of our DMZ boxes and each does
the job whilst each has its quirks (I'm leaning towards hmailserver right
now).

 

Any suggestions on anything else that is cheap/free and easy to configure?
