what you're saying is that you are capable of managing security better than
google.
that is highly arguable.
No, there's no argument here. With Google you have no way of knowing or
insuring the security of your content. For this application we can't rely
on third-party storage. (period)
We have been managing a number of servers for clients for many years, in a
cost-effective manner, with minimal spam. Most are based on PostFix with
our own spam filter that is somewhat more effective than Spam Assassin.

Our own experience is that we ran qmail/squirrel qmail/clamAV/Spam Assassin
for 5 years thru 2007. In 2007 - the amount of administration and image
spam made the entire exercise non cost-effective and a huge mail dos attack
on a customer's setup changed my mind permanently. I migrated 4 email
domains to Google Apps and I have not looked back since.
From a system security perspective - I don't have to worry about patching,
ddos attacks and web defacing attacks. from a data security/privacy
perspective - Google is better at managing personal data than you are, hands
down.
