(Note: Qwest is the only provider who can offer DSL at my place of business)
Qwest Choice DSL -- always on, 256 down, up to 256 up. $15/month
(http://www.qwest.com/smallbusiness/dsl/index.html)
Qwest Broadband Basic -- no services $6.99/month
(http://my.qwest.net/nav4/solutions/internet/bbb.html)
Total: $22/month.
Broadband Basic has no e-mail but I already get my e-mail through Mindspring. Mindspring/Earthlink offers free authenticated SMTP for dialup accounts (http://support.earthlink.net/mu/1/psc/img/walkthroughs/Help_FAQ/7280.psc.html). I pay $9.95/month for my dialup/e-mail because I have a business address there. (I'd be paying for that e-mail regardless of which DSL service).
If you want 640 down/up to 256 up, the DSL goes up to $28/month. Unfortunately, my line does not qualify.
If you have access to your own POP/SMTP server, this beats Qwest/MSN by a long shot.
