I'm not abusing anything. Zoho is free. Gmail is free. The only thing I need is to use my custom domain for a few email adresses I will barelly use.
Do you think it's smart to pay Google around $ 150 per mailbox per year (that's about the actual cost in my local currency) for my one person startup? I don't need Drive, Docs, or anything else.
Don't "You wouldn't download a car" me.
PS: if anybody from Zoho is reading this, if you create a new affordable service just for POP/SMTP redirect and custom domain I would gladly pay. I don't need host space and I see a lot of people with the same problem. Also I like Gmail interface and app so another reason I wouldn't want to pay.
