Solidly in the Google Mail camp. I use their Google Apps for Your Domain service to keep my domain name but use the GMail interface. I use their jabber service, calendar, docs, etc. And while there is that ever-present privacy concern, my contract (yes, it's $50 per year for hosting) with them spells out their legal obligations and Google has thus far said that they will not respond to government fishing expedition requests as they consider them illegal.
I have "jasonclinton.com" and my partner has "brandonward.us". We can share calendars, docs, jabber federation between our domains.
It's very nice.
But do you get to host your stuff on a server you have root on, or at least get direct unfiltered access to your spam filters and maildirs?
