Nothing wrong with the idea. I know some organisations have done a deal with Google to use (a modified version of) gmail as their corporate mail system for $X per seat.
I'm sure you can list the pros and cons of such a system. In some aspects it's similar to some corporate mail systems like Exchange and Notes where you don't actually own the mailbox on your machine but it's served from a server.
