I have my own domain and pay for Zoho to host my email. It works well aside from the occasional site that refuses to accept my email as valid because it's not a .com/org domain.
one more reason why self hosted email just isn't competitive with free/cheap cloud email is the client UX. Gmail is very feature rich while your self hosted email will likely run on RoundCube or SquirrelMail which are extremely barebones.
