If you don't host your own mail server, you are a clown-person
Where can I get a pair of size 47 shoes, a banana-yellow suit, and a lime-green wig? I am a programmer, not an IT administrator. I know nothing about which patches are required to keep a server secure, nor should Ihave to.
Being familiar with the technology for making programs has the same relationship to maintaing a publicly facing server as being familiar with the technology for making buildings has with operating a property-management, real-estate leasing, and property security firm all in one.
It's great that you and many others have these skills, it's not a dichotomy, but they are loosely related.
