The following are the answers of your query:
1.Yes with the help of email server emails of all users can be delivered at their desks without using internet. Thus you will be saving cost if bandwidth.
2. There are many email servers available in the market. But for Small and Medium Enterprises like you, the most cost-effective and efficient product is BLACKBox 1Xm, of the range of X series products.

Thanks ncvyas please solve this question also.

Our organization is a medium size organization with 40 employees. We have created LAN with 25 nodes. We use email as our formal communication tool. The users use Outllook as a mail client and store the sent/received emails on individual basis on their nodes. Our COO wants centralized storage and retrieval of all sent and received emails. Can you suggest a mail server which provides this facility?

Common ones are Microsoft Exchange or the open source replacement Zarafa.
