On the Internet - size is not an indication of threat surface. Ability to
provision and maintain is more important.
You have to engineer your solution to your needs.
For us - the combination of Google Apps, slicehost (for smaller projects) /
rackspace (for big projects) rocks.
Google Apps Mail and Calendar are amazing applications especially if you
have colleagues in 5 or 6 time zones and people with iphones and
blackberries like we do
I can't believe that there are people on Linux-IL who seriously consider
Squirrel Mail a competitor.
