What is your expected daily volume and how many distinct sending accounts do
you need[as opposed to email addresses]?  Is this for a non profit or
educational group, a government group, or a business?

Depending on your answer, I highly recommend looking into Google Apps, which
includes GMAIL branded on your own domain.  They handle all the hard stuff.

Standard  edition is free, Premier edition for business costs $50 a year per
account[not email address, but userid/password combo.  An account can have
multiple aliases]

http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/group/index.html

I can't find the page with the sending limits at the moment, but my
recollection is that for free accounts, AN email acount cannot send more
than 500 messages a day, for a business pay account, 2000 messages a day,
non profits and educational groups can get Google Apps premier edition for
free which gets API access and more than the free account but less than
premier, so maybe 1000 messages?  Government groups can get premier at a
reduced rate.
