Hosting your own email server is a challenge, as DMARC, SPF and random hand waving by email companies (who should know better) make it needlessly problematic.
There's also the issue of whether your home ISP allows inbound email ports (25/tcp, etc). A lot don't.
It's possible(?) a hosting provider can do decent email, but I tend to think of that like 1990s-era ISPs who provided email: liable to be discontinued at any time with little/no notice and not portable.
But it's your call. Good luck.
Yeah . I dont think we will move their primary.email addresses from Gmail but mainly use their accounts for identity purposes with self hosting and backup / storage of emails rather than paying Google.
Who knows though ..I meqn on q VPS im using an email server at moment to collaborate work with friends. It wouldn't be mission critical .. just family critical.
