Email self-hosting - eviltoast

As the title reads, I really want to begin hosting my own email server again. I’m sick of the poor quality of the service providers out there. Damnit all I want/need is a reliable IMAP/SMTP provider. I spent 3 hours getting off of Hostinger and on to Zoho. I just hope Zoho won’t suck. It’s great for now but we’ll see.

Is the prevailing advice still not to bother with self-hosting email?

    I want to turn it off so bad, but fomo, that one email from that one person I knew 25 years ago who only has that email address … fml.

    If you want to turn it off, can’t you just use some free service to forward messages to your new address?

      I actually had it running that way for a while but a couple/few/don’t remember years ago Google started rejecting all the mail :-(
