As someone running their own mail server, I completely agree.
I love being a sysadmin and learning how everything fits together, and even I find it at times exhausting keeping up with everything related to email best practices.
For someone without any interest in such activities, it would probably be a royal pain in the butt.
- toomuchtodo 11y agoFellow devops/sysadmin here: Fastmail is the ticket. Its ~$40/year, and you're supporting an independent mail company. I'd rather spend time with my wife then hacking on a mail server, but I still want to support open interoperability.
