I've ran my own email system for at least 15... 20 years now I think.

I run Hmailserver as an SMTP front-end for my Exchange server.

The only work I've ever had to do in that timeframe was configure DNSBL 
correctly in the beginning and later on a few Txt records in DNS for some 
weird new fad that basically told the world "please don't spam me".

I dunno, I guess since I work intimately with Exchange and Outlook in my
career, why not run it at home. Once you disable all the debugging and other
crap that comes out of the box its really not that bad, takes up little
resources here. I don't like building new VM's every time a new Exchange 
version comes out but its not like that happens often.

In all this time I've never had a problem delivering email to anyone and have 
no incentive to stop as I have a commercial grade fiber Internet connection.
