Consumer grade e-mail hosting options?

[Derek A. Neighbors]

OC3 grade lines dedicated host you provide machine should be done for 
$200 or less per month.  Depending on transfer rates.  One place we use 
is 200 a month pretty much unlimited transfer rate.  Other is like 150 a 
month for up to 6gig of transfer then you buy rates in gig after that.
