Gmail is great, but why would you ever rely on a 3rd party for a main form of business communication? I like having my own servers, but I build in lots of redundancy, so that I'm covered. No matter what happens.

Meh, I'd guess that Google has better backups and better availability than your servers. Maybe I underestimate your skills. =)

A third party? You mean like my cell phone provider? I sure hope they aren't listening to my calls!
