Self-hosting

Ian: I think hosting your own mail should also be mentioned on that list. I recently transitioned to doing that, and I recommend it. For someone else wanting to do it, I would recommend mailinabox. The other one people talk about is http://mailcow.email/. I did my own setup with exim and dovecot, and I forward port 25 from a remote server to my home machine to get around the standard isp residential service port 25 block.

https://mailinabox.email/ reads: "Please note that the goal of this project is to provide a simple, turn-key solution. There are basically no configuration options and you can’t tweak the machine’s configuration files after installation. If you are looking for something more advanced, try iRedMail or Modoboa."

• Mail-in-a-Box: "Mail-in-a-Box is based on Postfix, Dovecot, Z-Push, Roundcube, Nextcloud, Apache SpamAssassin, Postgrey, Nginx, @konklone’s nginx config, and more." - https://mailinabox.email/
• mailcow: "mailcow (formerly known as fufix) is a mail server suite based on Dovecot, Postfix and other open source software, that provides a modern Web UI for administration. In future versions mailcow will provide Cal- and CardDAV support." - https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/58855/mailcow-a-complete-mail-server-suite
