Hi all,

Starting to put together all of my stuff on self-hosting, and while file 
backups are easy enough,
email is something that certainly I want to do, but I question how well advised 
it would be.

I set up a small postfix/sendmail instance years back in 2015, but I remember 
it being a small pain.
There a trustworthy guide in 2026 or useful tips to know about rolling your own 
email beyond what's
in the man pages?
