Question, what platform(s) are you running now?  What must you provide for<br>
email, SMTP, IMAP, webmail, groupware, etc?  Do you have any intention of<br>
growing this?<br>
<br>
For the websites, what do they need?  Are you running any old PHP 3/4 stuff?<br>
You can setup a control panel, but if you're not running one now, and you're<br>
not going to expand it, why not just cap it until it becomes unprofitable?<br>
<br>
I'm a proponent of hosting my own email, it's not that hard and any ISP should<br>
be able to do it.<br>
