If it is just for yourself or family or a few friends then scale really isnt an issue. But yeah I agree - running a mail server can be a pain. It can also be easy. But that is the trade off with any SaaS - do you want to outsource and pay someone else to do it or do it yourself?
- jackson1442 5y agoI definitely am making my money's worth with my Fastmail subscription. Just over $100 for 3 years? I could work 3 hours and recoup that. Not a chance I could get away with < 3 hours of mail server setup and maintenance over the course of 3 years.
- JAlexoid 5y agoThat is so true.
- shukantpal 5y agoThe mail server can run for 25 years. And it doesn't require any maintenance. And you don't have to trust anyone else to keep your data safe.
