Where to host emails ? setup a VPS or go fully hosted ?

Hello everyone,

I need a solution to host my emails. I don't know if I should go the VPS way or just fully hosted. I'm knowledgable enough for setting up a mail server, but I'm not sure if this is the right way to go.

Ideally, If I'm hosting it myself, I would be looking for a reliable VPS provider that will offer good IP reputation as well as good continuity. I want a reputable provider that will still be in business in a long time (upcoming years).

On the other side, the cheapest and most reliable hosted email service I saw was RackSpace email hosting, but there is a minimum 5 mailbox commitment - I only need a single mailbox. Maybe I should go through a reseller ? Do they offer single mailbox for the same price ? What if that reseller go out of business, do I still keep my mailbox ?

I saw many good reviews of MXRoute, but I don't know if they are mature enough in term of years being in business. If I do move, I don't want to have to move again shortly.

In short, want something reliable and long lasting for my emails. Thanks for your input !

Oh, and I forgot, I only need IMAP, no need for exchange, etc.
