I would recommend against hosting your own email unless you want to learn from the experience. Otherwise, pick a good company and focus on other things. Personally, I would recommend Rackspace; perhaps from a reseller that can sell you a single address ($24/year). (contact me if you want) Free services scare me unless I can find how and why they are doing it.
