Well, email is a hard problem. Hosting it yourself requires quite a bit of effort and knowledge to achieve high deliverability and low spam. Any solution is going to require you to be a mail server admin, which isn't for the feint of heart. You can't really be a casual once-in-a-while admin to get good results. Sometimes it is worth paying a hosting service to take care of these problems for you. With that said, Zimbra is a wonderful, easy to setup, all-in-one solution (email, calendars, contacts, etc)... and it's free (the Open Source license version).[1] It works for small setups (<5 users) all the way up to huge installations (Comcast uses Zimbra for it's webmail service).
