Which is normally best for a web hosting provider, hosting your own email server or having it hosted somewhere like Google?

Agree 100%! The more 3rd parties you involve in the mix, the less control you have, particularly if something goes wrong.
I get less spam via Google services. And, I also have secured links.
But, if you know what you are doing, and can adjust your server in-depth, hosting your own mail server would be a great option. I used to run a Microsoft Exchange server til the box fried. Just didn't have the time or money to reset the box/get a new server.
