Yeah, I’m not that concerned about receiving, since I was able to send a mail with swaks and it came through in proton.

So, the forwarding system is basically like running an own mailserver, right?


How reliable is it to self host SimpleLogin, AnonAddy (addy), etc?
I have a private @gmail and a business @company.com (also via gmail), which I heavily rely on. Due to a recent data-leak somewhere, I'm now receiving unstoppable spam on my @gmail, and decided to set up a new account on proton and ditch @gmsil in favor of @example.com. I came across SimpleLogin, and thought that I could use that instead of protons custom domain feature for both @company.com and @example.com Since I also host some stuff myself, I went through the self-hosting process of SimpleLogin, which was a pita dealing with postfix. But now, everything is running fine and I can send/receive @exampke.com emails, which I tested with @gmail and @company.com (gmail). Even though it was a nice learning experience, I'm starting to wonder whether my setup is future proof and reliable, especially when it comes to spam. I really don't want my @company.com mails to land in customers spam folders. So my question is, how reliable is a self hosted email-forwarding solution, and how does it compare with a self-hosted mail service. Like, are these two equal in terms when it comes to precautions etc?

Ever since the api shit happend, and mods left their subs unmoderated, I feel like there are more bot accounts/posts on Reddit than ever.


I use proxmox for the sole benefit of just spinning up a VM of choice without having to deal with usb-sticks, etc.

From there I just run everything with Docker containers, via Portainer.
