As you rightly mention, I would be in complete control. I would have loved this option if I had more time on my hands to ensure I could do this well.

You can have a virtual Linux (or other OS) box on which you run a web server, IMAP server, and SMTP server of your choice, configured however you like.  The advantage is that you would be completely in control, able to operate as you wish.  The disadvantage is that you are completely in control, responsible for configuring the servers.  But most Linux boxes come with or have easy package installers for several popular servers, and recipes for various configurations are widely published.
