Yes, being a startup can be a bit on the frontloaded costly end, however, it may pay bigger dividends on the back end to have your office/business organized from the beginning as opposed to ad hoc solutions piled one on top of the other as the need arises. A comprehensive plan should include the intraoffice requirements as well as operating costs for producing goods and services.
Not to sound preachy but you may want to invest in a scalable solution now while your needs are small as opposed to later when your needs have grown to a point where any solution will be unwieldy and difficult to implement.
Look to some open source or free mail servers that allow for collaboration, even on a limited basis. You can find some using your preferred search engine.

| Thank you for the info! It's a bummer that none of the Outlook
| services are available to individuals who are not on exchange though.
| I was looking at one of the options listed on this link you gave, and
| see that they have something out there called office calendar which
| is a program designed to work just like Outlook would w/o the need
| for Exchange. The price though....a little steep for a start off
| company like ours. Thanks again for the info though.....
