The only thing I don't run myself is email, which I pay Fastmail to do, because dealing with all the required things to have a decent reputation score so I don't end up in a spam box is too painful.
It's a compromise, but you could use a paid SMTP service (e.g. Sendgrid, SMTP2Go) for your outgoing mail and still use your own locally hosted system for the UI and receiving mail. At least that way, you'd have more guarantees over mail safety, etc.
