And for 12.50 I get exchange+office all hosted and I don't do a thing. Thanks best part is that clients get my emails, and I'm not wasting days trying to fight the brick wall that is Google, Yahoo, Apple, Microsoft,and every other isp that blocks by default.

I don't really think the downvotes are warranted on this one - given that the post title calls out the expense, I think a discussion on what you gain (and/or give up) for an additional $10/mo is well within bounds.

the point is being in control of your own software stack, nobody cares that you can use some hosted solution easily.
