Like the title says, I’m new to self hosting world. 😀 while I was researching, I found out that many people dissuaded me to self host email server. Just too complicated and hard to manage. What other services that you think we should just go use the currently available providers in the market and why? 🙂thank you
Smtp isn’t that bad so long as you ensure you’re not operating an open relay.
Really bad stuff will happen once exploited and it will take major work on your part to undo ranging from getting removed from block lists like XBL to possibly having to renegotiate your ISP contract if they have to get involved.
