Self hosted email server for small business? (alien.top)

I want to set up an outgoing transactional email server for my small business. Do I need to purchase IP blocks? Given most IPs from VPS will have bad reputation.

Please respond only if you have ran an SMTP server. Not looking for heresay.

I’d be surprised to find anyone recommending you self host a mail server. It’s an absolute nightmare. But best of luck to you
