Selfhosting an email is very hard but I think that at the end it’s worth it
Until Gmail/Hotmail decides your IP is a spammer and forever you have deliverability issues from then on
Interesting, is this a wild spread problem? I have heard of people that host email services for years and have no problems.
I read some horror stories about folks who self-hosted for years and how they eventually quit and moved to an established email provider. It didn't seem like something I wanted to deal with.
Do you think using one of those federated email networks where it's invite only and between people you know would have any appreciable use cases in conjunction with an established provider? I can think of having a small org use it maybe but not between friends or family.
