Likewise, I've been thinking about moving away from Google Apps for a while and this may be the push that I needed.

Anybody have any suggestions? Self-hosted or otherwise.

http://www.roundcube.net/ is generally agreed to be the best webmail system. It's OSS.

I don't know about "generally agreed", but it has been adopted by Kolab and Mountain Lion as their email front-end, which I count as substantial votes of confidence in the product.

I'm resistant to adopting this kind of technology: I'm no security guru, but the idea of having Apache/PHP invoking Postfix directly as an executable (i.e., not via SMTP/ whatever) makes me feel nervous.

I don't know much about roundcube, but afaik it works by talking to your SMTP/IMAP servers.

Fair point. Perhaps "often agreed" would be better.

I've been happy with http://atmailcloud.com/ It's $10/month for 5 email accounts, multi-domain support, with calendaring and contacts too.

Email aliases don't count against the 5 account limit, and you can have as many as you like on whatever domains you like. Adding a domain doesn't use up an account slot, so you can set up forwarding addresses for multiple domains for no extra cost.
