As a productivity tool, i don't see the need to self host email. I used to self host email about a decade ago, but considering how complicated it can get with blocklists, residential IP blocks and just functional spam filtering, it seems to be much better to just leave it to dedicated people. I'm aware that people self host email for privacy, but email is not a private communication form, at least not in 2022. Any email will have at least 2 parties, and if you don't control the remote end, your privacy is non existing. Up to 30% of all emails will go to Gmail alone (https://emailanalytics.com/gmail-statistics/ https://emailanalytics.com/gmail-statistics/), and then you can add all the Google Workspace users, Outlook (personal or business users), and you'll easily end up with 60-70% of all emails at some point ending up with one of the cloud email providers.
