Can anyone who has done it comment on the downside (if any) of bringing email in-house, as opposed to continuing to pay a hosting provider? My plan is to have a separate server, sitting by itself in the DMZ, so the internal LAN should remain relatively safe. The DSL provider we use will host the DNS records (MX). We have a top-notch firewall already in place, but this is the first step we've taken toward making anything available inbound, so I'm cautiously optimistic.

You might want to find a provider to be your secondary MX so that email will get queued and forwarded upon failure of your DSL or your server.
