What types of services are you not willing to self-host? - eviltoast

For example, something that is too complex for your comfort level, a security concern, or maybe your hardware can’t keep up with the service’s needs?

    ip-reputation is also important. Mailgun, an email service for mass mailing, is doing an „ip-warmup“ if you choose a dedicated ip. So, if you are self-hosting with dynamic-ip, i think you would have a very very low ip-reputation.

      True, but this has nothing to do with Google and other, is a well done method to avoid spam.

        so what else is a factor for reputation? Or is it like if you dont pay to get your mail-domain whitelisted we lower your reputation score?

          No idea! I don’t run my own mail server. But if you read a bit up here, there’s a guy who runs his own mail server(s) since years. But the selfhosted world seems to be full (well…not so full) of people that self host their mail server.
