Using Gmail for your domain based email. Anyone?

    I didn't see a 'gmail' specific forum so i'm asking here.

    About 4 months ago I moved my business domain email to use Gmail. This was a great change because even if my business mail servers drop (i own a hosting company).

    I also use eNom's DNS which is fantastic with a 90 second TTL :)

    Does anyone else here use gmail for their regular email? in other words, point your mx record for mail.domain.com to google's mx and use their interface?

    The only drawback I can see would be that Gmail has records of all your business conversations, but I don't think i have much concern there.

    I'm not using gmail yet. But I'm looking at trying Google Apps out. It looks like a good free solution if a company just needs email.
