Donât send spam, behave nicely, have proper configuration on postfix and dovecot, set up SPF and preferably DKIM, keep your domains reputation clean and so on. Youâll likely still end up on some lists, so you need to manually dig them trough and ask nicely for removal.
Self hosting email has a pretty bad reputation and many will strongly advice against it, but in reality itâs really not that bad. But email as a whole is more complex beast to manage than simple website or running Jellyfin for your family and friends. You need to understand how the mail routing side of things work (SMTP itself, authentication for it encryption included and so on) and also you need to understand how DNS works and how various entries are related to mail transport. Then youâll likely want at least some kind of spam filtering and so on. And with email youâll need to have proper backup scenario too so that you donât lose the likely pretty important data. All of that is perfectly doable and itâs not as difficult as many claim it to be, but thereâs a bunch of stuff you need to understand and implement all of them correctly.
Itâs more harder than I was can thought about it đ¤
