Me too, I’ll never self host my email server.
Too much time that I don’t have to set it up correctly, manage the antispam and other thing that I don’t even know .
And if it goes down and I don’t have time to look into it (which would be the case 95% of the time 🙈), I’ll be without email for I don’t know how long.
I figured email would be a common theme. I’m just starting to dip my toes into all of this, so an email server is not on my to-do list (and may never be).

Hosting an email server is pretty sure a magnet for half the Chinese IP range… So I would refrain from hosting that myself.
