Szymon@lemmy.ca 7 months agoLots of people here say Proton, but I’d also consider selfhosting my email on either a home server or the cloud, whichever meets my criteria for redundancy to stay online

I hear self-hosting email is a really complicated thing if you want it secure and all that. I never tried, just hearsay.

The only problem with self-hosting is that big coorps like google or microsoft will put you on their spam list, so your e-mails will land in the spam folder when you send emails to gmail or outlook addresses. Other than that it’s not a huge hassle as stuff like mailcow.email or mailu or mail-in-a-box exist.

Ah, wow. Yeah. That’s a big problem, or would be for me anyway. No time or energy to deal with that issue.

Just make sure you add DKIM and all that. Mail in a box will do it mostly for you but it should take care of the spam issues at least until someone reports your emails as spam. For a personal email that shouldn’t happen.

Without dkim dmarc spf and all that stuff it won’t even reach the spam folder, but get either silently dropped or rejected where mailer daemon will send you a nice message.
