I would go further and say good luck self-hosting your email at all if you're a Joe Schmoe.
Being able to do that can't be expected of everyone, so for the individual (especially the individual reading hackernews) it might be a way around the problem - but it's not a solution.
- WesolyKubeczek 5y agoWell, good luck setting up even a Joe Schmoe Email Services Company whose email is deliverable. In the other HN thread about self-hosted email I've heard it essentially amounts to paying for racket protection so the big players don't "oops we accidentally blacklisted you, good luck trying to rectify that" you.
- iammisc 5y agoSelf-hosting e-mail is exceptionally easy. I've been doing it for almost a year now without problems. In fact, it's easier than a service. I use https://nixos-mailserver.readthedocs.io/_/downloads/en/latest/pdf/ https://nixos-mailserver.readthedocs.io/_/downloads/en/lates... and rent space in a data center, so to cloud IP space. But expecting non-technical people to do it would be a nightmare, that I agree with.
